OSXtotheZ Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 Hi I have Leopard 10.5.1 running pretty well on Intel 945GNTLR. Everything seems to work ok sound, video (have tearing tho) and networking. I can get on the internet fine but I noticed no more networking icon like in 10.4.x I guess its only shows now if there are other connected machine. In my case there are machines on the network but it still doesn't show the networking icon and if i manually go to the menu and select GO>Network it opens an empty window showing no machines are available to connect to. However if I go to menu and GO>Connect to Server and then manually punch in the other macs number 192.168.1.xx it will bring up the connect window like normal and let me putin my user and pass and the machine will connect and show up in the sidebar. Anyone else experiencing this? or know how to fix.

Alwayon Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 It seems like this is one of Leopard bugs. There are some reports saying that Leopard's AFP client has something wrong with it. Even in some real Mac. Somethings exactly as you said. For me, same problem. The AFP share seems to be disappearing from sidebar list, but it is fine for SMB (Windows-friendly) share point. My system is based on GA-P35-DS4 (Realtek 8111B Gigabit chip), so I solve this by installing DaemonES's excellent RealtekR1000.kext. This makes AFP share point appears like normal... but I ran into another problem since the current driver code won't support sleep-wake. So I'll lose network when the machine wakes up. Hope there will be some ways to solve this soon... and it like quite likely that it is Apple's problem Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/73425-leopard-1051-networking-and-sharing-glitch/#findComment-518972 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd problem (eg. I see this in word or ps cs3).
