Renard45 Posted November 3, 2006 Author Share Posted November 3, 2006 What about the Airport.kext extensions? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/31903-p5w-dh-deluxe-wifi-driver/#findComment-224044 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matej Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I've already played with this. Here's my post about it: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=170812 Perhaps you want to give it a go with those drivers. The link to the driver download page obviously changed - try this one: http://152.104.125.41/downloads/downloadsV...;Downloads=true The one at the bottom of the page should be the right one.

fabcat Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I have not tried getting it to work in macosx since I don't need it yet but I found a funny thing. Since it is on a usb bus, it can be enabled in parallels and made available to the operating system you have running in parallels. So it works for me in Windows on parallels but not in macosx. In parallels, go to the "Devices" menu, down to "USB" and select "RTL8187_Wireless" then you can install windows drivers for it and get wireless networking from your windows virtual machine. I wonder if you could then route your macosx network traffic via your windows vm so that your macosx can share the wireless? Note that if you get a macosx driver working for the wireless, then the above parallels thing might not work because macosx will be using the device. That is my guess anyway.

fabcat Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 That driver is worth a try. I had a look at it and it is compiled for ppc so maybe they need to recompile it for intel or universal: file ./rtl8187.kext/Contents/MacOS/USBNet ./rtl8187.kext/Contents/MacOS/USBNet: Mach-O object ppc Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/31903-p5w-dh-deluxe-wifi-driver/#findComment-224561 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabcat Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I emailed their wireless devision in Taiwan and asked them to recompile the driver to be universal. Not sure what the chances are of getting that to happen but it can't hurt asking.

rparker Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Emailed them today, and they have finished the driver. They will be testing now, and will release at the end of the month. If they follow through, what a great Christmas present for us Asus users. Dear Sir, Thanks for your e-mail. We already finish this program and begin test now. We expected release it at end of this month.

gecko Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 other things to mention... There is no kernel integration and there is a sourceforge project concerning this wireless "usb" card. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of...ireless_Drivers http://rtl8180-sa2400.sourceforge.net/ thoughts ???

panurge Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 This sourceforge driver is for linux, for old realtek 8180, and it's not even 100% compatible with latest linux kernels as far as i've tested.

We are still waiting for the intel (or universal) version of this driver.
