WaldMeister Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Not possible, Intel cards do not and probably will never work under OS X. You will need to replace the card with a supported one. The Atheros AR9285 is a good and not too expensive card that works with a few minor edits to either the DSDT or a modified kext. There is an old driver for Intel cards, but the project is no longer maintained. This driver used to work on my 2200 a few years ago: https://code.google.com/p/iwidarwin/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304839-intel-pro-wireless-3945abg-on-mac-os-x-lion-107/#findComment-2116122 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codinger Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I use the Broadcom BCM94322HM8L and it works OOB with Yosemite. Maybe you'll need to whitelist your BIOS.

L_A_S_E_R Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 I done some searching and apparently a Dell 1390 Will do the trick Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304839-intel-pro-wireless-3945abg-on-mac-os-x-lion-107/#findComment-2116190 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codinger Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Nice and check that your laptop has place for a full space wifi card Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304839-intel-pro-wireless-3945abg-on-mac-os-x-lion-107/#findComment-2116192 Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_A_S_E_R Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 If not then I need to buy half size right? How do I tell if it's half or full? I looked at a pinned topic with a table with the compatible cards which are colour coded. Will the dark green ones work straight out of the box (without any kexts) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304839-intel-pro-wireless-3945abg-on-mac-os-x-lion-107/#findComment-2116195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codinger Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Google your Laptop model. (T410 uses half sized cards) or open up your Laptop. Maybe you have to whitelist your bios good hacking OSBeast Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304839-intel-pro-wireless-3945abg-on-mac-os-x-lion-107/#findComment-2116202 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Freeman Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I have a Samsung with an unsupported card as well and from the bit of research I did, the Dell DW1510 seems to be a good choice for half-height mini-pcie Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/304839-intel-pro-wireless-3945abg-on-mac-os-x-lion-107/#findComment-2116205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
