I was under the assumption that the dell 1390 wireless card for notebooks was detected by default by OSX.

 

Having replaced the Atheros AR5007 with the Dell DW1390 ... I still get "no information found" under system profiler > Network ... and of course no connection.

 

Anything else I should be doing?

Ahh, sounds like you are one of the many users having problems with the 4311. I would suggest you check out this thread for an explanation of the problem.

[Good Info] Acer/Compaq/Etc. WiFi Killswitch Fix, For those of you who can't seem to get WiFi working...

 

Just to clarify though...so far the card is NOT working.

I'm not sure that the killswitch is the issue. I replaced my AR5007EG with an AirPort Extreme (AR5006EXS), and now the switch doesn't work, the wireless card is always on. It works perfectly with Ubuntu and Windows.

 

I ordered a dell 1390, so we'll se how linux reacts to that, although my friend has had a lot of trouble with that card, and it came with his inspiron 1501.
