EuphangeL Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Well I'm here again, with a new io80211kext for the new 10.5.7 don't forget to reapir permissions, seeya guys Thank you very much for the updated kext mate Still can't connect without using network diagnostics utility though... The airport icon way says connection timeout.. Will it ever be figured out why this is happening? With Snow Leopard 10.6.1, my TP-Link TL-WN550G (Atheros 5005G) works out of the box! and it doesn't even work in Leopard.atheros5005EGootb.tiff apple5005G.tiff Can you share the kext with us?

de_autojohn Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Hello guys ! I have a US Robotics pci wifi card in my desktop pc but it isn't working at the moment. I'm on 10.5.5 but I did my system believe that I am on 10.5.6 (made a change in mijn systemfiles somewhere) but I should need a working kext for 10.5.5 and maybe also 10.5.6 to have my Atheros AR5005G chip working ! Any chance? Thx ! Btw, I don't understand the thing with: en1 and en0 this: please note you have to have your wireless/airport device as en1, in my case my built in ethernet takes en0 so it works out fine. (make change in /library/systemconfiguration/networkinterfaces.plist) I can't find the networkinterfaces.plist on that place... Do I have to change this, if yes, where can I find it ! Really thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
de_autojohn Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 I installed the atheros.pkg from page 12 and now my pci card is recognized and when I open network configuration it says new interface or something like that but it's turned off and I can't turn it on, any solutions? Or a working kext file? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy MAC Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I have the same problem! Network card seems to work, but says "turned off", and if I turn it on, nothing! I've just readed the entire post, and after following the instrucions on page 1, I had a new network card, but turned off. I tried to modify NetworkInterfaces.plist file, to make it work... but I didn't find it! Someone has a working solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy MAC Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Ok, installed Atheros PKG of Page 12, repaired permissions, restarted and FULLY WORKING!! thank you so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deybdeybdeyb Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Hi Guys the AR5005G(S) worked for me in SL, by deleting/renaming AppleHPET.kext so that it wouldn't be loaded. And then adding the vendor and device id in the Info.plist of AirPortAtheros.kext. 0. Update to 10.6.2 + AirPort Client Patch 1. Delete/Rename AppleHPET.kext 2. Add the vendor and device id in the Info.plist 3. rebuild Extensions.mkext 4. Repair Permissions / 5. reboot This would work using the using the original airport kext and should be recognize as an AirPort. I haven't tried it in 64bit yet. Hope this helps!

dinosauria Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Try Ralink drivers. http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=3 I have an AR5005(UG) chipset and not a AR5005(G) but my wifi is actually USB and not PCI based.. I imagine that the (U) simply means USB.. Is there any way to edit the AR5005G driver to work with USB devices? What do I need to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try installing it with kexthelper. That's how I got my atheros 5005g working. It would work through terminal, but it wouldn't turn on. Kexthelper worked first try....Hope that helps...

Kexthelper worked first try....Hope that helps... I tried all the manual stuff a bunch of times with Jas 10.4.8, and iAtkos_5i, etc, but i found this and burned it to a cd on my windows 7 machine and then installed it on my Acer 3690, with 10.5.5, with this wifi card in it and it worked. it froze when i first installed the pkg, then i rebooted and it hung one time, then i rebooted again and it worked perfect. connected with wep. might give it a try. p.s. mine has an id of 0x168c,0x418 atheros.pkg.zip - http://www.mediafire.com/?vtvrfzdit1p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imrazor Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 come guys, any one has a solution for this? I think already 1000 people got it running but no one wants to help http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=33089&pid=1360813&st=300 http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=33089&pid=1360813&st=300 thx ! I know this is way after the fact, but this might help someone else having this problem. I had a similar issue with my AR5212/5224 or whatever number Atheros assigns it. After adding my PCI ID to /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Familly.kext/Contents/Plugins/AirPortAtheros.kext/Contents/Info.plist, my "Airport" was detected, but clicking on "Turn Airport On" did nothing. What I had to do was to go to System Preferences>Network, and click on my new Airport adapter. I then went to the bottom of the window and clicked on star/asterisk looking thing, then clicked on "Duplicate Service". This created a second Airport adapter called "Airport 2". I was then able to turn on Airport 2 and associate with my access point. With my most recent Leopard install, it restarts itself every boot, but in the past I've had to manually activate it each time I boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewT999 Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 so i tried this- everything went through but when i went into network nothing came up- i went into about this mac and more info and saw the software extensions and the atheros one is in there UNTIL i restart my computer then it dissappears-. As i said everything in the terminal went through right- any suggestions? also im trying this on iatkos v7 if that matters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
