elim Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 no wifi light does not turn on since 10.6 snow and according to the above picture your pci buss does not even see the wifi card... try it in the other slot or make sure pci is on in bios System Info does show the wifi card, but the system acts like not see it. As I sayed, swap a hdd with windows, the wifi works fine and so no problem with Bios and slot. The other slot is for WWAN, But it looks just like the WLAN slot, it that switchable?
