Under 10.5.5 on my QS Dual 1GHz, I continue to have intermittent kernal panics most likely related to an Airlink 101 USB 2 wireless ethernet connector. Here's a description of the Airlink: http://www.airlink101.com/products/awll3026.php
Wondering if anyone has a 11/16/08 solution for this? I have driver's but they seem to stop with "10.4 and above". This kp thing occurs whether I'm connected to a USB2 PCI card (Sonnet's Trio) or the onboard USB 1.1 of the QS, or a USB 1.1 of a Sonnet Tango (USB1.1/ FW). I'm concerned it's messing up my OS by having kp's. Here's the Airlink/Zydas link for drivers: http://www.airlink101.com/support/index.php?cmd=files&id=58 In another G3-G5 thread, someone reports maybe this driver would work, although I cannot get it connected for my wireless USB device: http://www.macwireless.com/html/products/wireless_cards/11n_cards/ 11nUSB.php xlr8yourmac folks report a Rosewill PCI ethernet card might solve my problem (getting rid of the wireless altogether): http://www.rosewill.com/products/425/productDetail.htm And another xlr8yourmac report suggest the ("non-Mac") SIIG NIC/FW/ USB2 combo card may/may not work, and/or because of the PCI-PCI bridge, you may/most likely will experience reduced efficiency: http://www.compuvest.com/Description.jsp?iid=589595 Here's the xlr8yourmac Networking page: http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/OSX/os_x_network_cards.html I guess solving the problem by switching to a PCI card and hardwired ethernet would be the most stable. Suggestions? Any experience with the SIIG combo card under OS X 10.5.5? Would be nice to also add USB2 as well as solve my ethernet connection issue. It has the Realtek 8169 chipset that seems to be favored still by Leopard, as does the Rosewill PCI card. Curious about real tests on the USB2 and FW parts of the SIIG combo in a G4.
