crash_pc89 Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I installed MacOsX 10.4.7 Jas on my Intel centrino duo laptop. All works fine, but i can't connect it to the internet. (i have both ipw3945 wireless card and ethernet card) Ifconfig results: lo0.... gif0 stf0 fw0... If i try ifconfig en0 up, it shows me this massage: ifconfig: interface en0 does not exist. If i go to SystemPreferences-->Network, the ethernt built-in is "obscured" (i can't click it) and there is only the "Firewire built-in". When i go to System Profiler-->Network-->Positions it display me this: automatic active: yes services: ethernet built-in: type: ethernet name BSD: en0 IPv4 method: DHCP What can i do???

dualBooter Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I'm having a similar issue (very odd). If anyone has any advice, it would be much appreciated.

bertie_uk Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 It knows you have an ethernet card but doesn't have the drivers Look through http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=34074 I have a Realtek 8110 and needed the driver package before it would show up in ifconfig or sys prefs Bertie Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/43522-ifconfig-interface-en0-does-not-exist/#findComment-330247 Share on other sites More sharing options...
dualBooter Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I'm not sure if that's the case in my situation, because before I got the wireless working, the NIC was working fine. When I did the (well known) swap, changing en0 to en1, then the wireless worked but not the NIC anymore.
