jacksont123 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Brilliant work jalavoui and xKazu! I can't wait to see you port this to Intel 3945ABG! Anyone remember that big abandoned thread on Intel 2200 Wireless where everyone lost hope and were reduced to buying new cards? Well a pox on them all!

nico342 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 (edited) The driver is working on my Acer Travelmate 4002WLMi with Intel 2200BG. (JAS 10.4.8, Semthex kernel 8.8.1). But.... I want to notice a problem. When the connection is active, I see that first of all that somes applications like iTunes and Quicktime jump a second of sound. My iTunes doesn't start after that the connection has been etasblished. Strange problem. I think that the problem occurs when the card scan. I'm waiting comments. (Good work !)

rathalos Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 ok, been using the intel wireless driver for a while now, i can say that the network speed with this driver is very slow..... double checked my location on a windows com and it is fast.... plus i cant reassociate again once i down the network..... i will have to restart the com in order for me to reconnect to the network....

CPngN Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Was about to write that it's working fine for me. But then it crashed. Or rather, dropped connection, and I can't get it back. Luckily plugging in the ethernet line switched it over. I was getting 1.5Mbps or so MAX on speedtests (I can get the full 6Mbps when wired via ethernet). Perhaps I'm connecting on 802.11b instead of g..? Also, I made the 2 changes suggested on the project page. Don't know if that helped or not. So... it works, but isn't stable, and of course no encryption and such yet. But.. it did work. Good work!!! As for using it as is right now - you can make things more secure by turning on MAC access-level filtering on your router and adding your OS X's MAC address (MAC not Mac) to the allow-list. This is a good idea anyway if you don't have random machines coming and going all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffton Beach Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 That's better than no security of course, but it's easy to change your MAC and get around that sort of protection. Looking forward to WPA2 (I can hope) but it's awesome to see that it works at all now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seskanda Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Ok, Whoppix 2.7 detects the Intel 2100 wi-fi card now. I can't connect to my wi-fi AP; probably because i have to sqwint my eyes to read the OS's Wi-fi config program. The fact that it detects my AP obviously means it detects the card, as well. Anyways, i could really use some instructions on how to display a linux log of iwi2100 (the driver is called ipw2100 in Whoppix) and find the "firmware (boot, ucode and firmware) size" of the driver, please. I am really looking forward to having this card recognized in OS X 10.4.1, then, everything on my laptop should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macstibs Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Serious congratulations are in order for you guys (j and x)! HUZZAH!

Fantastic work... really amazing! Good luck with the rest of your adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rathalos Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 xKazu, the blue badges "X-Lab Dev" means that you are a developer who have made significant or major contributions to the OS X86 project. Its a great honor for the developer to be recognised for his efforts... keep up the good work and help the 2100 and the 3945 people..... once that is done, help us tune it further!
