dan.scott1234 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Hi everyone, I've got a Latitude D620 all working, iLife nd iWork 08 installed running Uphuck 10.4.9 V1.4r3 One thing I really need is wired LAN as I want to use this machine to replace my powermacG4 as a server (I use NAS for storage) Of course the one problem with the D620 under Hackintosh is the damn Broadcom NIC doesn't work but there are USB LAN devices that work with regular OS X I wonder if these could solve the problem? Anyone have any experience with USB (USB 2.0 that is) networking at all under Hackintosh? Thanks Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d620 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 @ dan.scott1234 What wireless chipset do you have in your D620 ? (in case it is iw3945, how did you make it work ?) /Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan.scott1234 Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 I swapped my 3945 for a Dell1390 wifi card and OS X just sees it as a regular Airport Card. If you dont have one lying around as I did head over to fleabay there's probably loads for not a lot of cash and saves a lot of hassles plus you get to use the airport config interface.

d620 Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Ok, But since this is a company owned laptop, I do not think I will follow that path, but thanks for the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan.scott1234 Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 Anyone have any ideas of using a USB network card with Uphuck 1.4r3 as I'm going nuts without LAN on my D620! Cheers Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
