For a long time, my Netgeat wg311t has been working and fully reconized as an airport card. Resently i have reformatted, and newly installed mac. It reconizes my card at the install, but then...for some reason when in the os its self, it says my card isnt configured. But i have internet. So i look under network prefs, and its being reconized as and ethrinet card. ????????? Can someone help me get it back to being an airport? cause i need to so i can enter my wep info in, otherwise i have to use my router without wep ;).

Go into the file /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist

and perform the en0 -> en1 and integer 0 -> integer 1 change as shown below.

 

If you really have an ethernet card listed as en1 then, for it, perform the reverse: change en1 -> en0 and change integer 1 to integer 0

 

Repair permissions in Disk Utility and reboot.
