Broadcom 4311 and Leopard

[Pasechnick]

I've installed iATKOS 1.0i 10.5.1. When choosing additional patches I selected IO80211Family.kext from 10.4.5.

After the boot I got everyhing working except my wi-fi (it have 4318 id).

It's shown in Network panel but it's turned off and I can't do anything about it.

I added my wi-fi adapters' id to the IO80211Family.kext

In NetworkInterfaces.plist my wi-fi got id "en1".

No result anyway.

Thanks fo anyone for advance

AFAIK, the original Leopard kext should work.

What worked for me when I had this problem in Tiger was: Remove the IO80211 kext, remove the networkinterfaces.plist, reboot using -f.

Then put back the 80211 kext, and boot again using -f.

If it still doesn't work, you might want to try editing the networkinterfaces.plist again.

 

Don't forget the

<key>IOInterfaceUnit</key>
		<integer>1</integer>

!

 

Editing that part helped me a LOT.

 

Good Luck!

Thanks.

I've already solved my problem.

Original kext did it =)

I've tried this with no luck. My device ids are right with the original io80211.kext. I cant seem to find networkinterfaces.plist. My adapter is set to en1 so would even touching that matter? Im using a dell true mobile 1490. Any help would be much appreciated.

for similar problems to the first post with some systems you will have to connect with network diagnostic and will solve the issue.
