Chrysaor Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I got the same issue with 10.4.4. I have Broadcom 440x in my Dell Inspiron 9300 and ethernet card doesn't work, gives a kext error when loading OS. It used to work with no problems with previous builds. Are you sure that 10.4.3 kext will fix this? Thanks. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/9883-ethernet-problem/#findComment-61802 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrysaor Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Nice. Let me know if you find it please. Tried to find the file in 10.4.1 DVD, but can't seem to locate it.

Chrysaor Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Can anyone upload IONetworkingFamily.kext to somewhere? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/9883-ethernet-problem/#findComment-61950 Share on other sites More sharing options...
antrunix Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 IONetworkingFamily.kext from the 10.4.3 probably needs to move over to the 10.4.4. Remember there are steps to take after changing files in /System/Library/Extensions: sudo -s (give password) cd /System/Library/Extensions rm Extensions.mkext Extensions.kextcache (no problem if one or both files don't exist) chown -R root:wheel *.kext kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions (exit terminal) Applications > Disk Utility > select your volume and repair permissions Quit and reboot. WORKED FOR MY 10.4.4 (I found this information somewhere here) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/9883-ethernet-problem/#findComment-61987 Share on other sites More sharing options...

atavist Posted February 24, 2006 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I have had no luck with this or any other solutions I found online. I am still getting the cord not plugged in error under system prefs networking. Everything works fine in XP but it seems no matter what I do I can't the network to work. I was using a Realtek card that was supposed to work native. I have since moved on to the dlink DFE-530TX but still no luck. Any ideas?
