dtx Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I am currently trying to get my Atheros wifi card in my Thinkpad working, and want to make sure I have the right hardware ID correct. Right now, I think I am working with an Atheros 168c:1014 But, since when I follow the instructions that everyone else seems to say work, I have issues, I thought I would check. Currently what is happening is OSX finds the card as an airport card, but I am unable to turn it on. If I click on the "turn on airport" button, it doesn't do anything. This is info from Vista: In device Manager, it lists it as the following: 11a/b/g Wireless LAN Mini PCI Express Adapter Under Device Hardware ID's, it says the following: PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014&SUBSYS_058A1014&REV_01 PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014&SUBSYS_058A1014 PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014&CC_020000 PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014&CC_0200 Under Compatible ID's, it has the following PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014&REV_01 PCI\VEN_168C&DEV_1014 PCI\VEN_168C&CC_020000 PCI\VEN_168C&CC_0200 PCI\VEN_168C PCI\CC_020000&DT_1 PCI\CC_020000 PCI\CC_0200&DT_1 PCI\CC_0200 So, can someone tell me what specific hardware ID I should be doing searches for on these forums and google to try and get this card to actually work?
