[IMG][/IMG]I have taken a screen shot as per your instructions above . There shows no airport device in the system profiler and as you can see in the attachment there is no airport icon on desktop.

Ok...

As you can see, the second to last line reads Broadcom 4312. We already had confirmed this in Windows, but its better to be double sure.

Your only problem now is software.

You didnt tell me if you tried making a new connection in the Network Prefs...

Lets recap just one second. You have a 6930G right... did you follow my tutorial or do you have a different install? If so, what distro/method did you do to install OSX...

And also... did you install any kexts for this? This would only work out of the box if you are running vanilla kernel.

Anyway, try this kext and report back. Install with OSXtools, and reboot with -v -f flags

Installed the kext from link but still no airport card shows.
I followed your install using Iatkos v7 but without ethernet as i know mine is not compatible and also didnt have to use 9600 gt string as nvenabler/gt200 seemed to work fine on their own,other than that same install as yours.
How would i try making a new connection if airport card not available ?

I dont know, but I distinctly remember a couple of posts from long ago when I was dealing with my other hackintosh, 10.5.5, and it seemed to work for some people.

apple -> system prefs -> network -> bottom left there is a "+" and "-"

delete all and create e new one.

Also, go to spotlight and type "network utility", first tab "info" there is a dropdown menu below "Please select network interface for information"

en0 is normally ethernet
en1 is wifi

check if it shows up there

unable to manually create manual wifi connection as there is no option for wifi/airport and in network utility only shows en0 ethernet in the dropdown menu.

damn it ! :mad:

I am out of ideas...

Except, of course, to find a usb stick that is compatible, loads around, do a search... but of course its not ideal, but at least temporarily.

You could try with another pcie card, broadcom or atheros.

Your card should be working fine !!! I know how irritating this can be, hang in there.

Another thought. Where did you put that kext? S/L/E or E/L/E ?

IF you used OSXtools, or manually, do the following.

Copy the kext out of S/L/E to desktop, then delete the kext from folder. Copy it to Extra/Library/Extensions.

Delete extensions.mkext from S/L

Go to disk utility and repair permissions.

Reboot with -v -f

-f is the same as deleting extensions.mkext, but on boot it forces deletion again and rebuilds.

Just for reference, I have mine in S/L/E, but for some reason you might need it overriden. Could be something to do with a not so friendly dsdt.aml code...

I find this tutorial confusing for someone new to this
 

I find this tutorial lacking information, at least for someone new to this. for instance:

So let get started... (single boot)

- from USB I loaded up iAtkos v7
- With disk utility choose HD and partion with 1 partition again (essential so as to not only erase drive, but to erase bootloader info from previous try outs. I've been at this non stop for two weeks! did over 15 instals os Leo and Snow Leo.)
- Customize with;

iAtkos essential system
Bootlader - Chameleon 2




How do I load it from USB? Do I mount it? Do I put it in a pen drive and reboot? Do i put it in an xternal hardrive. How do I "load up"

It is not that lacking if you read the first two pages of the thread. And in all honesty, it can be simpler than this, you have no idea the amount of hours it took me to get this a good install. It is absolutely simple and clean, if you'd tried installing Leopard even once before, it would all have made sense to you.

When I say "load up" mean "boot it"... Everything seems kind of scary and hazy because until you try it out, its a misterious land of strange lingo.

If you have the same model as me, worry not, my tutorial is almost 100% noob proof, and I'll help you out

Booting from usb is exactly the same as booting from DVD, except it is 20x faster, and especially handy to tweak your install if needed, disk utilities,, reload bootloader, kexts/enablers in distro or simply fresh re-install, etc.

Restore the DMG to a blank USB formatted hfs+journalled, slap chameleon onto pen drive and you are good to go.

This is also very handy, to have a Chameleon bootloader on a pen, saved my ass 5x already!

When I say "slap chameleon onto pen drive" I mean "install chameleon 2 rc 1 to pen drive"

If you have OSx running, just download it.

If you dont, boot iatkos DVD, customize install and uncheck EVERYTHING except chameleon 2 bootloader, making double sure in the previous step to choose USB drive as destination.

It very well might report a yellow exclamation mark as "failed to install" - this is absolutely normal as you will NOT be running post-action scripts from the iAtkos dvd.

Reboot with Pen drive, make sure you know how to make bios boot the pen drive in first place.

Can be done in BIOS order, I just press f12 on bios flash screen and it gives me a menu. My other hack (asus) its ESC. If not, just go in BIOS and change order to USB first.

I have just about given up on this card, can you recommend a usb wireless stick that should work ok.

Thanks for your help
