I got the Dell 1390 wifi card for my m1210 like everyone suggested, and now I boot up and the airport card bar thing shows up. The problem is it wont let me turn the airport on!

 

Apparently the problem is not uncommon but all solutions I have seen haven't worked.

 

Here is my networkinterfaces.plist because I know that is often the root of the problem:

See anything there that would explain it? Or know another solution? Thanks

have you tried to create a new location in the network settings? that helped me the first time I had problems with the same card. I had the problem that my settings would not stick with the default. also, did you try an older version of IONetworkingFamily.kext? use the one from Jas and see if that helps.
