Evil_Cartman Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Hi everyone. I can't make my 3945ABG work properly. The driver was installed without any troubles, but there is no any connection to my WiFi access point. "NetworkSelector" utility does just nothing. It can detect my hardware wi-fi switcher turned On or Off, but that's all. Option "1" changes caption of itself to "on" and "off", and nothing happens. No networks list is provided (option "2") without any error messages. Options "3" and "4" also gives no effect, just refreshes menu list. "System Preferences/Network" shows an unplugged cable error message. And my wi-fi network of course is not encrypted, not hidden, I've set all preferences to open SSID without any protection and tested it over Windows, all works fine. Did anybody solved such problems? I'm stuck on it. Think there is one small step to make wi-fi working, but I can't get it.

EpithetMusic Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I have a Toshiba A105-S4547 with a 3945abg internal wireless card. I would love to help development but I really don't know how. I'm great at following instructions. That's how I got my HD Realtek soundcard working. The first time I installed OSX Jas 10.4.8. the network selector seemed to work fine and the driver was installed but didn't work. Then I had to format the harddrive for other reasons. Now the Network Selector didn't work. And the driver still doesn't work as expected. Anyways, I'll help as needed.

spu Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 Hello, I need your help! I've installed Vista, JaS 10.4.8 ppf12 and Ubuntu on my notebook with 2200bg. After using the iwi2200 the 2200bg card works on the OSX. But Vista and Ubuntu cannot use the card any more, because it is powered off after logging out from OSX. I really need the wireless card under Vista and Ubuntu. What can I do? Thanks a lot! spu Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/103/#findComment-418923 Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlee Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 spu there should be a switch on your laptop which enables wireless/bluetooth, just switch off then on inside vista, it will re-enable, the switch is on the actual laptop, maybe at the front or side...

spu Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Hi atlee, I've tried what you said, but it still doesn't work. I'm afraid that the switch is totally disconnected from the wlan card. The LED doesn't work under nsGUI and the wlan card can be powered on by it and detect some networks, even when I swith the card off. I must say, I haven't tried to connect with some, because they are all encrypted. In Vista and Ubuntu the wlan card can be detected, but it is powered off. Must nsGUI power off the card when it exits? Is my wlan card perhaps already dead, because I have once used older NetworkSelector before nsGUI? Thanks a lot. spu Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/103/#findComment-419171 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jalavoui Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 Any news for 4965 to work? i need people with this card to submit the logs and help writting new code. the code for this driver was taken from iwi3945 and need to be rewritten for 4965. iwi2100 last logs show that the driver is getting a kernel panic. but i've seen other logs without this bug. please post new logs if you have the 2100 card. use networkselector to test the power on/off iwi2200 there's a hack in code for turning the radio on/off. the driver works better if you boot into mac os with the radio turned on. you can see in console log: 0x50000 (this is the good "on" value) 0x40000 (this is the good "off" value) the hack makes the card accept 0x50001 (fake on) and 0x40001 (fake off) - this can make the "wireless button" to fail to work. best thing to do is, before reboot to windows, to make shure that you get the "good" values. to do this use nsgui to swith the radio on/off until you get 0x50000 or 0x40000 i don't really like this hack, but it's the best i can do for now can someone review this explanation and put it in the iwidarwin faq?

spu Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Info: I have an Acer notebook with a wireless switcher. I don't know if I've understood you correctly. I booted in to mac os with the switcher turned on. Then I opened the nsGUI to turn on and off the 2200bg card. Every time I've turned it on, I made three logs: ioreg.txt, system.txt and dmesg.txt. In the system.txt I got always iwi2200: radio off 0x40000 = 0x40000 iwi2200: radio on 0x50000 = 0x50001 never iwi2200: radio on 0x50000 = 0x50000 ================================================================ ...

spu Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Here are my log files. The system.txt says my radio [button] is disabled. The last time for "iwi2200: radio on 0x50000 = 0x50000" was "Aug 1 16:40:11". The last time for "iwi2200: radio off 0x40000 = 0x40001" was "Aug 1 16:39:52". The first time for "iwi2200: radio on 0x50000 = 0x50001" was "Aug 1 22:46:48". Now it's always "iwi2200: radio off 0x40000 = 0x40000". Was has happened? What should I do to change it back to "iwi2200: radio on 0x50000 = 0x50000"? And would it help me to use the 2200bg card unter a multibooted windows/linux?

jalavoui Posted August 3, 2007 Author Share Posted August 3, 2007 never iwi2200: radio on 0x50000 = 0x50000 to get this you'll need (when you see this line in system.log) iwi2200: IPW_INTA_BIT_RF_KILL_DONE to press the wireless button [i mean the wireless switcher ] once, then you should use nsgui to turn off/on doing this will show: radio off 0x40000 = 0x40001 and them radio on 0x50000 = 0x50000 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/103/#findComment-419911 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spu Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Hi Jalavoui, I'm sorry I don't really unterstand what you mean exactly. Do you mean: (?) Login enviroment: I log into Mac OS with the wireless switcher turned on. The nsGUI is on and the card is powered off. Now I turn the switcher off and press the button "set power on" in nsGUI. After that I press the button "set power off" and make the logs. Or should I also press the "LED" button in the nsGUI to try? Should I always turn off the switcher after login and use the nsGUI to control the wlan card? Should I let the card powered on, before I reboot into windows? Thank you very much. spu Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/36976-intel-wireless-driver/page/103/#findComment-419942 Share on other sites More sharing options...
spu Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Hi Jalavoui, I did what I understood: I booted into mac os with the switcher turned on. From the system.log I think there should already be "iwi2200: IPW_INTA_BIT_RF_KILL_DONE". Then I switched off and set the card on and off using the nsGUI. I post now the system.log just for these actions. They didn't change the values. Please tell me what I should do more exactly. It would be wonderful.

edferg Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 i need people with this card to submit the logs and help writting new code. the code for this driver was taken from iwi3945 and need to be rewritten for 4965. Please don't think I'm ungrateful or anything, but what's the point of basing the driver for the 4965 on iwi3945 when the iwi3945 doesn't even work? Flame suit on.
