bobdamnit Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 That Intel wireless card is not supported in OS X. I recommend a Broadcom card if you want wireless to work. Like I said, I have the same Latitude model. I recommend swapping the Intel card for a Broadcom card and then following my guide exactly. It should get you up and running almost perfectly in about 3 hours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobdamnit Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I have the 4312 (DW1395) that works with OS X Snow Leopard great. It works with Lion, but it needs an extra kext. (Outlined in my guide.) Any Dell Wireless card will work. Here's an example from a U.K. eBay seller: http://www.ebay.com/itm/DELL-WIRELESS-DW-1390-MINI-PCI-E-CARD-AIRPORT-DW1390-UK-/200407002325 This card works perfectly in any version of OS X.

Administrators Hervé Posted December 28, 2012 Administrators Share Posted December 28, 2012 Do you need Rosetta? PPC applications are pretty long in the tooth in 2013... Get a Broadcom-based card (such as DW1390/1490/DW1395, etc.), they cost pennies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobdamnit Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 The F5D7050 will work, as long as it is version 3. You can tell which version it is by the following: http://www.belkin.com/support/ab/c/Default.aspx If its a version 3, download the following driver (USB(RT257X/RT2671/RT2500) from the following website: http://www.ralinktech.com/en/04_support/support.php?sn=502 Follow the prompts to install the RaLink software and start browsing!
