Hi Andy !!

I'm using both your fix and the DeviceMergeNub on a netbook n450 where i've just uptaded to 10.6.8 and where I can not activate the airport, till 10.6.7 I had service but since the upgrade I can not activate more the airport the kext that worked till 10.6.7 not works on 10.6.8 the fact is that the wificard it's not recognized. It seems that the kext is dead. This kext was picked from kexts.com that one dated on october 2010.

I've started on SL using a 10.6.2 Hazard then using a combo to upgrade to 10.6.5 then I've updated to 10.6.6 using a delta and then updating to 10.6.7 using a delta too. Usually then every update I must to reinstall the netbookinstaller from Meklort

With your fix kext the wificard it's recognized but I can not set the country with the DeviceMergeNub the country its set to X0 and the Regional Configuration to FCC when the RC that worked was APAC (I'm in SPAIN) you can see the information extracted from a comparative of several Profile System on my System.

So where can I find the string to set my country and regional configuration on your DeviceMergeNub ? It seems to me that using it slows a bit the system TIA ;)

ACER 9410 and AR9285 (replaced original)
 
I used both the 'Atheros AR9285 fix files' and the 'DeviceMergeNub' and this allowed me to get my device seen as an airport and I see networks- I can connect but entered my own IP- but do not think it goes any further than that- I don't have a internet connection.

what do I need to do or submit to give you the vital information in order to get me running-
it seems that there are many different configurations- I do not want to assume that I can just change everything based on my system from the setting of yours

I'm US - and I can see why apple doesn't want to confuse things more by adding a variety of vendors of unsupported hardware- this is the headache

Change the IO80211CountryCode to reflect your country (default is X0, set to US, BE, ...).

I don't know what else to show - the device was off at the time of picture- which is properly represented in the photo specs
but what do I use and what am I modifying to change the country code- if that is all-
WHAT EDITOR DO I USE- WHAT SETTING DO I NEED TO CHANGE - AND HOW DO I CHANGE IT
thanks- don't know of any other way to ask what I need to know

your help is much appreciated as it got me this far

Hi Andy, I am using a TL-WN851N with chipset AR922X. device id is 0029. I have tried a lot of is80211family.kext and put "pci168c,29" into info.plist.

It works actually. It can connect to the internet but make the system dead after a while. mouse cannot move, keybroad dead. there is no any error information occur.

However, the system is good while i using msn. Every time i open website, the system dead. if i use cable but not wireless. that is good. no error. but the speed just like 5-8 kb/s.

Please help how to fix the AR922x. ths a lot.

For Atheros AR9285 you need at least Snow Leopard V10.6.5...
Just to let you know...

So where can I find the string to set my country and regional configuration on your DeviceMergeNub ? It seems to me that using it slows a bit the system TIA ;)

In the Info.plist, use a plist editor to edit it.
You can get it by right clicking on DeviceMergeNub.kext, show contents.
Next navigate to Contents.
Hope this helps you... ;)
