chunkd Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I finally found a distro that would load the install on my computer , sager 4750. it was uphucks distro 10.4.9 universal v1.3 couldn't find a leapord distro to work(kept getting waiting for root device something like that). Anyway, everything is running atm, only things I need to fix is my ati 9700 mobility I cant change resolutions !!! but the main issue is the wireless nic. With in mac its saying its a pci14e4 , 4311 card Airport Brcm43xx but in windows its a Gigabyte GN-WIAG / GN-WPEAG , I know its a GN-WIAG card ven 168 , dev 0013. So at this point I have no clue how to get this card to work I have read and tried different kexts, changed info.plists etc.. nothing seems to work I hope someone can point me in the right direction. It shows 3 devices in the NetworkInterfaces.plist , 1 is the brcm43xx at en1 (set didnt have to change ) , reltek nic and firewire, another thing I don't get is when I go to Network , it gives me 3 options to setup a network none are Airport, its Serial, ethernet and firewire. Well I hope someone can help. Thanks again chunkd. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/90785-wireless-help-gigabyte-gn-wiag/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

chunkd Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 oh, my bluetooth works go figure still can't get my wireless card going !!! I wish I knew the chipset of this card then I could just use those kext and edit .plists because it looks like OSX is not putting the right driver in.
