spfatpipe Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 (edited) I swapped a Intel 3945 with a Gigabyte GNWI01GT to use in Ubuntu/Kismet which it works fine with the latest madwifi snapshots. Does anyone have any advice on it working in 10.4.6? I think its a Atheros AR5006EGS Mini PCI express. I have added the string pci168c,1c to the info.plist. but no joy. Its a fujitsu Amilo 1520 BTW Would using the IO80211.kext from 10.4.8 work? Bit stumped really anyone help please?

spfatpipe Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 I am going to add this to the wiki as not working in 10.4.6 and buy a different atheros express card.

spfatpipe Posted April 26, 2007 Author Share Posted April 26, 2007 I have mainly being using Ubuntu on my laptop. Would like to get it to work still but I dont have enough time to tinker at the moment. I did'nt get a new card BTW.

spfatpipe Posted January 12, 2008 Author Share Posted January 12, 2008 This card (Gigabyte GNWI01GT) works out of the box on Kalyway 10.5.1 In fact everything works on my Fujitsu Amilo 1520 except Ethernet which I am sure is an easy fix. Note that the original wifi card in this machine is an Intel 3945 which I am not sure works. Hope this is useful to somebody out there!
