I'd love to hear if you have any luck with it under OS X.

Default Mini 10v - Wireless - 11-09-2009, 03:40 PM

Anguish has been a big help with narrowing down the wifi problems.

I've been researching USB wifi adapters that will work in Snow Leopard, and no one is having any success. Everyone has functional ones for Leopard. I've been messing around with a Linksys WUSB600N Version 2, and it's not working.

I've had slow connections with the wifi card that came installed in my Mini 10v 1.66 GHz unless I connect it to an AirPort Extreme on Channel 11 (it connects flawlessly with that setup).

Other than that, my 10v 10.6.1 Hackintosh is incredible! I love it!! =)

I've just picked up a 10v and realised it didn't have 802.11n. I have an Airport Extreme Mini-PCI card from a Mac Pro - would this fit? From pictures I've seen it looks like the 10v only takes 'half height' Mini-PCI cards, whereas the AE is quite tall. At least I wouldn't have to worry about drivers :-P
