Intel 8256x Gigabit Networking


5 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

I was looking in the IONetworkingFamily.kext and saw 2 Intel plugins in there: AppleIntel8254x.kext & AppleIntel8255x.kext. I was wondering if there is a kext for Intel 8256x networking controllers for us with Intel gigabit LAN devices. If not, has anyone been able to find a workaround to get an Intel gigabit LAN working?

 

I know that all the new official Mac hardware has some sort of built-in gigabit LAN, but I'm guessing that they use either a Realtek or Marvell controller instead of an Intel. Can anyone confirm this?

Me too. So, i was searched many time on google and on this all site about osx86 which i known, but there are not any information about this kext. I also searched a tutorial about write the ethernet driver for mac, it is still on this site: http://episteme.arstechnica.com/6/ubb.x?a=...mp;m=7480952764, that is very good tutorial for anyone have interest to write driver for this device.
