I may have been able to just upgrade the kernel, but I updated the whole distribution to 8.10 Intrepid Ibex Alpha 3. This means you need to have another _functioning_ network card in the machine you are using besides the WMP300N.ġ) Install Ubuntu - I used Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron but it wouldn't recognize the WMP300N. Note: This procedure requires that the machine you are using have a working Internet connection to download some of the bits. Please post what worked/didn't work for you and I'll try to update this post. I am writing this from memory, so there may be an error or two, and there is probably a quicker/shorter way to accomplish this. One way to get it to work is to change the card's IDs so that is on the whitelist.ĭisclaimer: I cannot guarantee that this process will work, and if something goes wrong, you can very well brick your wireless card. I started doing some research and found that it would not work because its vendor and product IDs were not on Apple's whitelist. After fiddling with it for a while I was able to get it to work, but not at N speeds. Without his patience and direction I would not have been able to get this to work.īasically I purchased the Linksys WMP300N wireless card with the hopes that it would work seamlessly in OSX.

However, I would like to note, the software used to perform the modifications to the sprom data file SHOULD ONLY BE USED TO MODIFY THE REGDOMAIN AND SUBSYSTEM ID'S since it is not an entirely polished application where all features work properly. I have asked the person who performed the rebrand to put together a little how-to to help those less experienced achieve the task so hopefully something will be posted in the near future. The Bufallo Technology WLI-PCI-G300N is the same adapter and you should be able to rebrand this card using the same process. If you're using the magic-boot (swap CD) method and the retail Apple Installer then you wont have any issues with the wireless adapter. Of course I've seen some of the Install DVD's that provide modified ist files where some ID's are substituted for another so if you are using one of these installers you may need to restore the contents of the ist for it to work properly. I had my first report yesterday of someone here successfully rebranding their WMP300N using the linux tools and thus removing the instabilities of the AirPort "Third Party Wireless" adapter or having the adapter recognized without having to hack any extensions.
