JSn1™ Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Wow, how do I know that? I had the Intel 3945abg, and swapped for this one. In Dell's website it says it is a Mini-Pci. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StealthMode Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Awesome, I have been looking for something like this. My Buffalo Wireless (WLI-PCI G545) is the only thing I need to get working for a 100% working install Awesome work! Will try this out shortly.

StealthMode Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Ok, apparently I don't have the AppleAirPortBrcm4311.kext.... I can't locate it anywhere. I am using Uphuck 1.3 install. No AirPort cards are listed. Where can I find and install the kext? Edit: Found it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blink Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 So i downloaded and extracted the file. Opened a terminal window and typed the command and it says sudo: ./bcm43xxenabler.sh: command can not be found So what do i do? Cancel that...Stupid me forgot the _ between xx and enabler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StealthMode Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I drag an dropped the file into the terminal. Seemed to work fine. Though, since I have gotten it working, I get random lockups, I repaired the permissions, but nothing needed repairs. Any ideas? I have the Buffalo WLI12 G545 (BCM4306) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StealthMode Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Nope. I forgot to delete the Extensions.mkext and Extensions.kextcache, so after I did that she hasn't locked up all night. Do I need to install the airport updates? Edit: Well I jinxed it.....It locked up as soon as I posted this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blink Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Just wanted to thank you for the script to get this working for me. My onboard ethernet doesn't work with mac. It shows up. But won't connect. Any ideas on how to fix this? Or could you point me to another post with the information. I have a hp zd8230us laptop. The onboard ethernet is a realtek semiconductor rtl-8139/8139c38139c+ according to the hardware information on my linux partition. Again thank you for getting my wireless to work.

miramar Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Thanks for the good work. I didn't use your script but here's another card that you can add to it that's confirmed working on a fresh install of Jas 10.4.8+PPF1 followed by Koolkal's 10.4.10 SSE3 update.

mcsmart Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 Belkin High-Speed Mode Wireless G Desktop Card (PCI)F5D7001ak ver 2000ak 0x14E4, 0x7001 (Vendor, Device IDs) I can not confirm this. The Device ID you have posted is _not_ supported by this script, since it does not belong to the 43xx-family of Broadcom chipsets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagastya Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Update: 10-07-2007 8:41PM Note: Only post the PCI ID if you simply have to add the ID to AppleAirPortBrcm4311.kext in order to get it working! Supported Chipsets: All Apple AirPort One Cards 4306, Broadcom BCM4306 802.11 b/g Wireless LAN 4309, Broadcom BCM4309 802.11 b Wireless LAN 4318, Broadcom BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN (confirmed) 4320, Broadcom BCM4320 b/g (confirmed) 4324, Broadcom BCM4324 802.11 a/b/g Wireless LAN 2b continued Cards that are known to work: Belkin F5D7000 Buffalo WL12-PCI-G545 Linksys PCMCIA Card WPC54G Probably tons of other cards, as long as they have a supported chipset... hi mcsmart, it sounds promising. does this will work on my dell truemobile 1300 too? kindly advise. thanks!

mirinek Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Hi mcsmart, your script does the job perfectly! My wifi miniPCI car is BCM4306 (0x14E4,0x453) and now recognized as an AirPort one works great. Thank you, this was only last thing to solve with my hacintosh to full hw support on this great OS :-) I'm running: JaS MacOS X 10.4.8 on IBM ThinkPad T41p (need to replace mpci cisco card with the BCM one and make a hack on bios due to restriction by IBM...see thinkwiki.org - the IBM BIOS is set to only allow you to boot with an 'authorized' adapter installed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've saved it to your Desktop, you have to enter 'sudo ./Desktop/bcm43xx_enabler.sh'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wenle Z. Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 i have a DYnex PCI wireless card, and it has a BCM4311 chip. how do i find the PCI IDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wenle Z. Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 well, it doesn't work. Just like other tutorials, it only shows in Airport, but can't find / connect any network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcsmart Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share Posted October 12, 2007 It sounds like you need to swap your network interfaces in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist. Do you have 2 onboard LAN cards? That could be the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wenle Z. Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 yep, i have two lan on my motherboard. now, my lan dont even work now. any solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOL_fan Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 I'm using a Dell 1390 card with a Broadcom 4311 or 4318 chip (I'm not 100% sure which). The file you attached needs to be unzipped to the desktop, right? Because when I try your command in terminal, I get "command not found" or "no such file or directory" depending on whether I put a space in between sudo and the period. I feel like there's something painfully obvious my n00b brain is missing, but maybe you can help. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pp02 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 oh {censored}. This'll teach me to pay more attention to things. it's been over ten years since I fiddled with other OS's so forgive me for the idiocracy. New install of xxx 10.4.10. Gigbebyte p965 DQ6 mobo everything seems to work. Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapeter. I'm assuming in Windows XP hardward manager the PCI ID is the - PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4320 ? The actual ID Being 4320? Anyroadup, I installed the script and not being able to find any location of the AppleAirPort kext accepted the default location, rebooted and it's all gone {censored} up. Flicky flashy OS X desktop.
