FlipHDK Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 it has a very interesting piece of file named: apple80211.hit is a reverse engineered copy of the original closed source apple80211.h i think you should give it a look. i don't know if i can upload it to here since i don't know how legal it is, but you can find it i KisMac svn repository. Nice, heres a link to save time looking for it. https://svn.binaervarianz.de/kismac/trunk/S...ty/Apple80211.h Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/50/#findComment-325401 Share on other sites More sharing options...

moseschrist Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 i hope... maybe it could help us avoid creating the new interface and be able to use apple airport interface by the way, by working you mean you can surf the web with it ?

greg231 Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Hi and a big thanks to all for their amazing work. I installed the latest 2100 kext and the following are the files you asked for. I also included a chipset report which i hope may be of use. I have the Airport icon on the taskbar but no connection. I get the correct MAC address in Network. Please let me know if there is any more i can do to assist you guys. system.txt ioreg.txt dmesg.txt Chipset_Report.txt Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/50/#findComment-325598 Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclonefr Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 (edited) im using 8.9.1 kernel and the driver is loaded but airport is inactive and cannot be activated. And Airport isnt listable in the network menu. Still doesnt find any network. edit: im using 10.4.9 kext and framework + airport update 2007-2. As jalavoui said there were'nt any .7 files required.

FlipHDK Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 (edited) Atm the driver's cannot use the AirPort menu properly because it's closed source. So this isn't a big problem the driver will never be able to use the airport menu correctly unless apple released the src or we can get the Apple80211.h reverse engineered header for the Apple80211 private framework to work.

moseschrist Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 little update about the apple80211.h: well it seems like that our hopes for an airport menu will remain as hopes after all. the reason is this, this header should allow us to change networks if iplemented and should allow us to use the airport menu, but, it seems like that originaly (in real airports) it uses some an application to link between the driver and the menu, and it is that application that implements the header and not the driver since the header contains frameworks that cannot be included in a kernel extension driver. so it's back to the drawing board and again to try and write a custom app to do the network changing.
