Does anyone know how to make the Atheros 168c:1014 wireless NIC work on a T43? Genmac see's the adapter but then says it is "unsupported"! The internal Broadcom NIC (Cable) works O.K.
Using eCS 2.1
Is there possibly a different driver that will work in this Laptop?
Thanks for any ideas

Hi Klipp,
I was fighting with this issue today when my laptop lcd backlight burned out.
Anyway, it seems GenMac doesn't enable some WIFI driver features when
running on unsupported mode, hindering it useless from xWLAN point of
view.
For RTL8187SE I was able to patch the GenMac driver so it recognizes
mine as one of supported WiFi and then then it suddenly works and was
recognized by xWLAN.
But... before trying anything wild, try to boot on eCS and run
type WRND32$
to see if the driver is being loaded at all.
