Well, the driver on that site is build for the PPC Version only, not for the Intel Version.

You need an Intel version of the driver or a Device that is supported in the HCL.

 

HCL for 10.4.1

HCL for 10.4.3

i got mines to work (belkin f5d7000 devid is 14e4,4318 also being bold in the table below as an example of my id) by following CheeseCakes instructions and it may also help you out too with your usb issue

you must also delete the patched IO80211Family.text thats on the install dvd

of 10.4.3 (8f1111)and use the one from the 10.4.4 to get it to work

Download 10.4.4 extensions (search forum), extract and find IO80211Family.text/contents/plugins/AppleAirPortBrcm4311.kext/contents/info.plist

 

Edit from

<array>

<string>pci14e4,4311</string>

<string>pci14e4,4312</string>

<string>pci14e4,4324</string>

</array>

 

to

 

<array>

<string>pci14e4,4311</string>

<string>pci14e4,4312</string>

<string>pci14e4,4318</string>

<string>pci14e4,4320</string>

</array>

 

save and drag IO80211Family.kext into /System/Library/Extensions/

 

In Terminal,

sudo -s

chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions

chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions

kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions

reboot

 

also what helped me is by running unknowndevice to find out the dev id for the card

if you can put that belkin usb on a pc and run unknowndevices to get the goods

And what about belkin F5D6050 in Mac Os X 10.5 Leopard?

 

No drivers for that in belkin's support web.

 

I give a prize for that one who gets it to work

 

 

I have that good old thing F5D6050 with two antennas here ;)

 

Belkin has all drivers for it on the website, for the very first OSX Puma Jaguar, but they stopped at Panther support.

 

I used it years ago on real macs. It even works under MacOS9. And if you do a upgrade install from Panther to Tiger it will work on 10.4.x too. But only for the PPC version that is.

 

The thing is that these kexts are PowerPC versions. If I put the Panther kexts in Hackintosh Intel Leopard, they will not load. I have no real Mac anymore, but I guess that Leopard PPC would work with it like Tiger also did, just totally unsupported.

 

The device is too old for Belkin to make Intel kexts for it, that might be the reason they stopped at 10.3 support as this was the last PPC only OSX.
