XennaStudios Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hello guys, I've managed to install Lion on my Acer Aspire 4830tg, everything is working perfectly except for the wireless card (Atheros AR9287). The card worked on Snow Leopard 10.6.7, but for some reason its not working on Lion (10.7 or 10.7.2), on youtube I saw a guy with same laptop that got it working but he isnt responding. I have tried the following: 1. Putting snow leopard kext in s/l/e of lion 2. Trying this kext http://www.osx86.net...cie_ar9287.html 3. Trying this kext http://www.osx86.net...amily.kext.html 4. And many other kexts 5. Tried putting my vendor/device ID in some of the atheros ar9287 kexts that didnt have them. There is this DSDT patch that requires Rom, I dont know if DSDT is possible for my notebook, and i dont want to mess around if its not going to work, as it may brick it Specs: - i7 2620M 2.7 - 640gb - 6gb ddr3 - intel hd 3000 - gefoce 540m - atheros ar9287 = device id 168c 002e Please help its so frustrating...

Funkoyote Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Atheros ID is 168c, not 165c Put your device IDs (168c 002e) in Atheros40.kext (plugins folder).
