Patched Realtek WIFI RTL8187B kext

[00010]

This is my patched version of Realtek's original kext for the RTL8187B WIFI adapter, This is compatible with Tiger,Leopard and Snow Leopard. Just follow the "Readme" file carefully.

If you have any problems/suggestions contact me here.

This worked great, but for my setup the key was either passing arch=i386 at boot for chameleon or -x32 if you use EFI. Hope this helps someone else.

Hi,

I have searched the web high and low for kext's for the Realtek RTL8188CE, I posted on InsanelyMac but as its dead I got no reply. So I hope you will be able to answer my question :) is there even a kext for the 8188CE?

Thanks / Ryan

Is it a Wifi adapter? What bus does it connect to?

Hi,

Its an internal laptop Wifi card, its PCI-E NIC. The exact model number as of Windows 7 System Information is:
Realtek RTL8188CE Wireless LAN 802.11n
The bus number reads as:
00000007

Hope this helps, if there is no solution I'm prepared to just swap the card with a compatible one. ;)

Here is a product description (http://www.realtek.com.tw/products/productsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=21&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&ProdID=272).

This kext I have here is for USB seires of cards, I think it would be best to swap it out for a supported card, if you want to check as a last resort go to www.kexts.com (http://osx86.co/www.kexts.com)
