Linksys WMP54G Wireless Card

I have a WMP54G Linksys Wireless card and was wondering if it was possible to use thin in my PowerMac G4! Thanks!

I have a question relating to this, i just got a powermac for xmas (stats below) and i have the exact same linksys card, and i was wondering, on the site, the one on the bottom is 10.3/10.4, i have leopard, so do i need to get the 10.5 pci version, or will the 10.4 version work with 10.5?

Compatibility issue between MSI MS-6575E and a Linksys PCI wireless card

Hi all,
I have a Compaq Pavilion a249.pt with a MSI MS-6575E motherboard. I bought a Linksys PCI wireless card to access to network.
The problem is when I plug in the PCI card the system don't boot. It remains in the HP logo and doesn't jump to system start.
I plug the card in another computer and I get no problems...
Do you have any idea about what can be wrong?
Yhanks,
CC

Thanks for your comments and help. The problem is solved!
Here are the steps I took:
1 - Try to find help in HP support team: they don't help me in any way!!!!
2 - Try to find help in Linksys support team: they help me isolating the problem and they didn't have any kind of error report regarding with Linksys card and MS motherboard. They told me to try the linksys card in another computer to ensure that the card was in perfect conditions. And it was.
3 - Download of MSI motherboard manual to find any clue.
4 - Search for a forum (like this!) and ask for help. You were the only with straight and usefull ideas . Thanks!!!!!
And now the solution: After checking the BIOS parameters regarding with LAN boot (you told me to disable it), I switched the card to PCI slot 3. The boot was OK.
Again, many thanks to you all.

Linksys WMP11 Wireless Card Setup (Prism 2.5 chipset wlan-ng drivers)

I just finished setting up my first Arch Linux box on an ancient desktop of mine. It is running so suprisingly fast and I am loving it so far. I learned a ton working trough the guides too. Anyway, I am having issues setting up my wireless card. Currently, I am sharing my laptops wifi with my Arch desktop but I would like to use my acutal PCI card.
The card is a Linksys WMP11. I used to lspci to find that it is using the Prism 2.5 chipset. I consulted the Wireless Setup guide
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wi … bsolete.29
This informed me that my card is supported by the wlan-ng drivers. My card is supported on the hardware list:
http://www.linux-wlan.org/docs/wlan_adapters.html.gz
I have searched around the official Arch repositories and the AUR and I can not find this package. The Wireless Wiki page states to use tools within the wlan-ng26-utils package. I can't seem to find this package. It does say wlan-ng is obselete. Is it no longer maintained?
I also downloaded the drivers directly from
http://www.linux-wlan.org/
However, I ran into issues when trying to run make configure. The value it generates for the Linux source path is invalid.
So, I am out of luck since the packages don't appear to exist, or is it possible to compile and install the drivers from source? How do I tie this into pacman?
Thanks

Hope this helps. I have the same chipset and have been searching on and off for the past three days for the answer - here's the simple thing that got mine working.
in /etc/rc.conf modify the modules line to include wpa_supplicant
MODULES=(wpa_supplicant)
in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf add the following line (create this file if it doesn't exist)
blacklist iwconfig
Now you should be able to activate and configure your card via wpa_supplicant. Here is a sample of my wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
# WEP in Shared Key mode
network={
ssid="MyRouterEssid"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
wep_key0="MyCustomKey1"
wep_key1="MyCustomKey2"
wep_key2="MyCustomKey3"
wep_key3="MyCustomKey4"
wep_tx_keyidx=2
priority=5
auth_alg=SHARED
And here is the wpa_supplicant command line to start it manually
wpa_supplicant -B -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlan0
BTW, I also have these two lines in the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file
blacklist orinono
blacklist orinono_pci
I have not had time yet to verify if this is not needed (was part of previous attempts to get wifi to connect) but wanted to let you know in case it is part of the stuff needed to get these cards working with the newer wpa_supplicant. Of course this configuration is for a WEP Shared Key configuration. I have also not had time yet to test whether or not this will work in WPA mode. I suspect not in my case because the firmware I have on my card is pre-wpa on the Prism 2.5 series. We'll see.

Help With Third Party Wireless Cards

Hello, I am needing some help with third party wireless cards. I have purchased and installed the Linksys WMP54G wireless PCI card into my G4. From what ive seen on the discussions page here, this card is known to work with the G4s in place of the more expensive Airport Extreme card. The only problem is that my G4 doesnt even recognize that the card is in the PCI slot. Ive tryed the other PCI slots and still nothing. Previously, i have tried using a belkin and a d-link card that have been known to work in the G4s as well, and had the same problem. I am 100% sure that the card is seated correctly, and cant think of any other reason why it shouldnt detect that something is in the slot. If anyone can inform me what im doing wrong, or has any info on how to get it working, that would be great. Thanks for your time,

Powermac G4 Mac OS X (10.3.8) 2 gb ram, 200 gb hd, dual display

Yes, i run Digidesigns audio editing program called Protools on my Mac. It uses a PCI card to import mic/line audio signals into the program from the hardware interface. I tried moving the Digidesign card and putting the wireless card in the same slot, and still nothing, although the Digidesign card works fine in the other slots. Each time i moved the Digidesign card, it showed up in the different slots, although the ones that were open did not show up at all. Only the PCI slots that are in use show up in ASP on my machine. I have the FW-800 version of the G4, so im not sure if that makes any difference. I have never erased the PRAM before, would you be able to give me directions on how to do that? Thanks a ton for your help. =)

Linksys Wireless Card (Linksys Router) in G4 Power Mac works fine until...

Linksys Wireless Card (Linksys Router) in G4 Power Mac works fine until...
new software upgrades on the 14 August 2006 (yesterday) which includes Airport 4.2.
The Linksys wireless PCI card (WMP54G) was installed just under a year ago with no problems. There was no need to install drivers, the Apple Mac recognised it and used it as a wireless card. I was browsing the internet last night (14 August) and the software updates downloaded in the background. Once it finished downloading, it requested for a re-start. I carried on browing the internet and then switched off my machine and went to bed.
When I turned on my computer in the morning, the wireless card no longer activates. The computer recognises there is a card but there is no connection to the router (meaning no internet). The router settings have not changed at all.
I believe it could be the Airport 4.2 update has interfered with the Linksys Card, but I'm not sure. I've been through all the Assist functions etc and there is no luck. It does seem that the big update released on the 14th August has played its part.
Any opinions and assistance on getting the card back to normal, and if possible assistance in removing the new updates to previous drivers/settings.
Thanks people.
G4 Power Mac Dual Processor Mirrored Doors Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Sorry, I do not have a solution for you but I have the same problem upgrading from Jaguar to Panther (on my home machine not listed which is a G3 b&w). Now my WMP54G doesn't see any wireless network (I used to be able to see several in the 'hood), and Apple Profiler recognizes the card. Apple updater changed the Airport system files, I believe.
Is it possible to find the old Airport software and install over current system to get it working again? I doubt Apple still offers the old airport software, but if someone has it, maybe it can be installed with Pacifist.
We need some wireless help here, community.

Intel Wireless Card doesn't work with Linksys?

My wired computer works great with the WRT54GX2, but my wireless cannot hold a signal for very long. Support says they can't help me because I have a Intel wireless card. Intel does not support for that card anymore and I can't see where to buy a Linksys card. Please, help.

I do know everything, just not all at once. It's a virtual memory problem.

How do I connect my laptop to my Linksys wireless router through the internal wireless card?

I just purchased a gateway laptop and was trying to hook my Linksys wireless router up to it. Ive gotten it hooked up but only through the secondary device (that catches the signal)... I was wondering if there is anyway that I could make my internal wireless internet card a point or no? Can I only connect it to the USB network adapter or is there really a way to go COMPLETELY wireless? Thank you for your time...

Is your internal wireless card enabled? Go to device manager and make sure it is enabled.

LinkSys Wireless Card connects to "Access Point" but no internet connection

I have 2 LinkSys wireless cards. one is 802.11g, the other b. The signal for the Airport Extreme 802.11n Wi-Fi Wireless Base Station is very strong, but when I try to connect, it says "You are connected to the access point, but the Internet cannot be found". No internet access, and I can't ping anything (Ping request could not find host...). And of course the printer hooked to the AirPort is also not recognized. My iMac and Macbook both have no problems connecting to the network. There is no problem with ethernet connection to the Airport. Is it possible to have a compatibility problem between the Linksys and Airport hardware? I thought as long as they were were compatible 802.11, they would work together. The cards had no problem with my old DLink router or other hotspots in the city. Is there a set-up I missed for setting up the PC-based cards with the AirPort?

Is your wireless network secured?
The box said windows xp or better... So I installed Linux!

Linksys wireless card problems

Just today, I purchased the new Airport Extreme and hooked up the wireless network to my iMac. My roommate has a PC with a new Linksys wireless card. When trying to access the iternet using the Airport Etreme, it gives an error saying that 'Cannot associate with the access point'.
Our neighbor has an unsecured wireless connection and she can use that just fine. How can we get her onto our own wireless network?
Thanks!

Per chance to you have your AX configured to NOT broadcast its "Network Name?" (Note: In the PC world, this would also be called the SSID.) If so, I would re-enable it so that it does.
As the issue is most likely Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC) on your PC, I would try the following:
o In the WZC menu, remove all of the preferred networks, and then, restart the PC.
o With the AX configured for WPA Personal, add back the AX's network as your preferred network.
Did WZC find the AX's network? If not, can it find any networks in the local area? If it did not find the AX's network, did it allow you to add it? Can you PC connect to any other wireless network?

Is the Linksys WMP54G PCI adapter compatible with the Airport Extreme?

I have set up my network using the Airport Extreme and am able to connect my iMac, my Macbook Pro, and two Windows laptops without difficulty. However, the two Windows desktops that I have are using the Linksys PCI wireless adapters (WMP54G) and they both do not even see my network. They are able to see the neighbors' networks just fine, though.
I called Linksys and they assure me that the cards are compatible with the Airport Extreme. Linksys advised me to adjust my settings or call Apple for support. I have tried configuring the Airport, but I don't really know what settings to change. Has anyone else successfully connected using this adapter? If so, could you help me connect? Thank you very much!

Ok, thanks! Try the following setting on the WMP54G PCI adapter:
o Look at page 12 of the adapter's User Guide for reference ...
o For Security, select WPA Personal
o For Encryption, select AES
If this doesn't work, try reconfiguring the AEBSn for WPA Personal (not WPA2 Personal), and then make the following change on the adapter:
o For Encryption, select TKIP

Linksys wmp54g connect to airport

I have problem connecting my Linksys WMP54G ver.4 wireless card from my window XP to Airport Extreme 802.11N base station. The wireless card recognize the network name, but there is no connection even after I enter the WEP 13 character.

Hello smobo. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
I have problem connecting my Linksys WMP54G ver.4 wireless card from my window XP to Airport Extreme 802.11N base station. The wireless card recognize the network name, but there is no connection even after I enter the WEP 13 character.
If you disable encryption on the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), can you access it now? If so, I would strongly recommend that you use WPA-Personal, instead of WEP, as WEP is no longer considered secure.
If you must use WEP, set up the AEBSn with a 128-bit 26-HEX character password. For testing purposes, I suggest that you try the following sequence: 0123456789abcdef0123456789. Note: Be sure to change this once your verified that you can connect. Use this same password with the Linksys WMP54G

Netgear PCI Wireless Card in a Power Mac G4

I have a Netgear PCI Wireless Card MA311 and I'm trying to make it work in my Power Mac G4. Does anyone know of any drivers I can use or any way I can get online with it? An alternate option is the Linksys Wireless-B USB adapter (ver.2.8) that I have around here somewhere.

Generally speaking, if you are planning on buying a PCI wireless card, do make sure that it is Mac compatible. Mac drivers for such cards or for USB wireless adapters can often be difficult or impossible to find.
Another option could be a wireless Ethernet bridge (also known as a gaming adapter) connected to the Ethernet port. These devices (examples include Belkin F5D7330, D-Link DWL-G810, D-Link DWL-G820, Linksys WET54G, Linksys WGA600N and Netgear WGE111) do not normally require special driver software, and can be used under almost any operating system. WPA security may or may not be supported for a certain unit, so study the specifications (a firmware update can solve this in some cases).

Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Router Not working

I have a Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Router and it has worked good for a couple months and yesterday it stopped. When I plug it in all the lights are lit even though there arent any ethernet cables connected and the power light blinks constantly. I tried holding the reset button on the back and it didnt help. Anyone know whats wrong or anything I can try to fix it?

You need to try again to reset the router to factory defaults.
To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
5) Power down the router.
6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is dead.
If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. In this case, use the Linksys tftp.exe program to try to reload your router with the latest firmware. After reloading the firmware, repeat the above procedure starting with step 1.
If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
Please let me know how things turn out for you.

Recommendations for Wireless Card?

I am thinking of getting a new wireless card for my laptop because my wireless connection is very weak at home. We all use a router, however my sister in the room next to me has flawless connection on her Windows laptop. It was suggested to me to look into getting a networking card that matches my Linksys router for stronger wireless connection, but I was hoping for some more advice. I do not know where to look first or how to start searching.

Some WiFi issues are known to be fixed simply by upgrading to 10.4.11. To upgrade to 10.4.11, follow my FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/upgradefaq.html
Others may be fixed by following my FAQ*:
