Atheros AR9285 (0x002b168c) fix for Snow Leopard
“Thanks for the work Andy. Do I put this in E/E or in the iO802 kext in S/L/E? Or just in S/L/E? MW”

ATH-AR5B95 Kext.
“I would REALLY like to find a decent kext or something to make this work in 64 bit mode. I tried another card in my G73JW-A1 that didn't work and I have to take it apart again (MAJOR surgery required to get at WiFi card) and would like to b…”

Asus G53JW - working great! (was "horrible feedback at boot")

Asus G53JW - working great! (was "horrible feedback at boot")
“Do you have issues with this? When you boot do you have to turn it on yourself or does it work without actually hitting Fn F2 like three times? I put in a Broadcom card and it works great ONE TIME when loading a web page and then the second…”

P5K-E Wifi - iPC 10.5.6 - Kernel Panic Can't locate
“I have really REALLY come to determine that the RT8187L n the P5K-E Wifi is a serious impediment to a stable OS X on this mobo. It not only makes the system panic with vanilla kernel (Which you SHOULD be running on this mobo) in 10.5.6, eve…”
