I've run into a little problem. The patch got me working and all but file transfers go extremely slow over AFP transfers between my real mac and my hackintosh.

 

Heres where it gets really weird:

 

1) If I use an ethernet connection between the two via my WRT54GS Linksys Router, there are almost NO packets going betweent the two when I check the network activity.

 

2) If I go from the wi-fi on my mac through my router to the ethernet on my hackintosh, transfers go at about normal speed.

 

3) If I just use an ethernet switch instead of my router, the ethernet connections work perfectly.

 

Is this an issue with my router or is there some sort of weird bug in this patch or maybe the drivers for my hackintosh network adapter?

 

NOTE: This only happens with AFP, SMB networking is normal.

Many linksys routers are not Mac/hack-intosh friendly. I spent a lot of time trying to get my network card working when the problem was the router all along. I too have the problem you are desribing and I am using a similar router. We use a Linksys router at work and it does not play well with the Macs there.

 

You might see if there is a firmware update for your router. There was for mine and it improved some of my network problems, but it stll is not perfect. You will have to use a Windows box to update the firmware.

Thanks, that was excellent. I had upgraded with the JAS 10.4.9 package and thought everything was fine until I found my Personal File Sharing had been turned off and hung when I tried to start it.

 

This patch has fixed the problem but I did have to run the "about this mac" fix again after.

 

Thanks again.
