Guest uklloydi Posted March 7, 2009 Report Posted March 7, 2009 I bought an MSI Wind, mainly because I had heard from several sources that this was a netbook that ran OSX on it really well, in particular Wifi! Predictably, after installing, the Wifi is not working. I realise that this was not part of the original installation, and is supposed to work thanks to some Realtek drivers. I followed the video that Paul O'Brien put together showing him installing it on an Advent machine (different branding, same hardware) but he already had another Wifi card that was supported in the Kalyway 10.5.2 installer. So I looked around (torrent sites) for the Realtek drivers and downloaded what I thought was the right set (filename: Realtek Installer87se.pkg). However, following the instructions I can't seem to get any wifi. I've posted the screen shots of what I'm looking at, compared with the instructions in the Readme note on the installer: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ianlloyd/3335977498/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/ianlloyd/3335141551/ Can anyone tell me what I've missed? How can I put this right? Should using these drivers be basically the same as using normal airport connections? Great tutorial, Paul. It was because of this tutorial and hearing how easy it was on Macbreak weekly that I went out to buy this machine and try it out :-)
Guest johnwin Posted March 20, 2009 Report Posted March 20, 2009 uklloyd, Your screenshots seem to have been moved/deleted from flickr. I used the drivers found here: http://netbooks.modaco.com/content/msi/277...recovery-tools/ and they worked fine.
