heinkeljb Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Hello, I have been going though loads of posts trying to find a solution but so far nothing has worked. My laptop is a Toshiba Saterlite Pro A300 (PSAJ1E - 01200XEN) It has both ethernet and wireless cards built in. The Ethernet is a Marvel Yukon 88E8072 which I belive will make the following 0x436C11AB. I have tried various kexts but none have made it work. (windows with the right drivers makes it work) So my hope is that someone with more knowledge about these thing can help me get at least the ethernet working. Wireless I belive is an RTL8187B (88E8001 ?) but again it does not work. Neither show as adapters in "Network" all that is in there is FireWire. Heres hoping......

heinkeljb Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 Hi, Thanks for the reply and the link. Unfortunately, none of the drivers seems to work. I assume I am installing correctly as they have an installer..... No new network adapters show up in NETWORK. So ia m still looking for a working solution to either network adapter if anyone has one.... Many thanks, John Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/235794-network-adapter-not-found-toshiba-a300/#findComment-1573482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimoe Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 try the attached appleyukon2injector kext its customized for your networkcard. hopefully works lets try file: AppleYukon2Injector.kext.zip Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/235794-network-adapter-not-found-toshiba-a300/#findComment-1573503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
heinkeljb Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 Sorry to say, that didn't seem to do anything either... Maybe I am doing something wrong? Maybe a step by step guide to installing the kext so I can check I am doing things properly? Whatever happens, I am gratefull for any and all help provided.

heinkeljb Posted November 1, 2010 Author Share Posted November 1, 2010 This is driving me BARMY!!! I now have a ethernet network adapter showing in NETWORK, BUT it says "not connected" and nothing I do will make it connect - it's as if it is not there except in name...... What on earth do I do next? Any ideas?

heinkeljb Posted November 3, 2010 Author Share Posted November 3, 2010 Just to try and make it clear. My original problem was that I could not get a network adapter to show in NETWORK and though that if I could get it to show there it would all work....... How foolish was I Anyway, I finally got my wired Ethernet adapter to show in NETWORK. But even with a cable plugged in, it tell me it is NOT CONNECTED and I have no idea how you get it to connect. Is it because I am using the wrong kext? I know the network adapter work as I can use it if I boot UBCD and load that version of windows. Most other thngs work - I did notice that it does no recognise an SD card when one is plugged in to the card reader slot, but that is a minor detail compared to no network......! Does anybody have any ideas, even a link to something to read which might help would be useful.
