crosscrunchy10 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I have an hp pavilion p6654y with a Ralink 3090 Wireless card and OS X 10.5.1. I installed the proper drivers and when I open the Ralink utility it shows the possible connections in my area so I know the card is working. My router is a NETGEAR and it does not have any password or encryption or anything and the Ralink utility lets me connect and it seems like everything should work from there. But when i open safari or skype or anthing else that requires an internet connection, they all fail immediately to connect. When I go into my network settings it wont let me select the card. How do i fix this? Also, just so i dont have to start another topic, does anyone know where i can find a Realtek High Definition Audio Driver? -AMD Athlon II 630 Quad-Core 2.8Ghz -4gb ddr3 RAM -Ati Radeon HD 4200 -Ralink 3090 802.11b/g/n Wireless Card Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/246193-ralink-utility-can-connect-to-router-but-internet-wont/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

How i fixed mine was by going into Safari, when it shows that it doesnt connect click on "Network Diagnostics" and when the diagnostic window opens just click on the circle beside "Ethernet" and then click Continue.

crosscrunchy10 Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share Posted February 4, 2011 Ok i got internet working so thats cool thank you but when i installed the voodoohda.kext my computer instantly froze and i had to power down via back switch. Now when i try to boot up it says the usual stuff but then it gets to this part and does nothing. look at picture. It says "BSD process name corresponding to (something else, i dont think dis is the problem part) and then it lists my kernal version and stuff. I have no idea what to do. If you need me to take more pictures just say so.
