Cisco Aironet 350 and Jaguar?
I'm playing with 6C115 and I can't seem to get my wireless card working. Does anyone know if there is a problem with it? It detects my card but it's not in the network settings so I can't choose it as my network card. Does anyone have ideas?
I think you have to reinstall the drivers. They're HERE.
I remember installing the Aironet 350 Series card and software on my B&W with OS X (10.1.5) and having trouble until I tried installing the 3 software components individually. Then it went like clockwork and functioned almost flawlessly. Once in a while I would have to re-associat the radio, but that was simply a matter of opening the Cisco Utility and clicking a few boxes.
The awesome thing about the Aironet 350 Series is that it works on Macs considered unsupported by AirPort and OS X. Although OS 9 allowed me to use Proxim's (nee Farallon) SkyLine Wireless PCI card to connect to my Home LAN, it was no-go under OS X, and Proxim basically told me not to hold my breath waiting for an OS X solution. Apple didn't care either since my B&W PowerMac was officially unsupported (The next PowerMac model, Yikes, was the oldest to be supported by AirPort and OS X). The Aironet 350 doesn't get the press it deserves, which is a shame. Perhaps the folks at http://wirelessdriver.sourceforge.net/ can talk it up since their site is so popular with the unsupported crowd.

Does your Cisco card support AppleTalk in OS X? I have a WaveLan card in a Lombard but can't print to my network printer and it's driving me crazy. I'm still waiting on the driver update to see if AppleTalk support will finally be added. But, I've reached the point where if a card is out there that will work, I'll just get it.
I read somewhere that even with the latest Aironet 2.1 utilities (released in April), the 350 card does not work in 10.2. The guy said the light(s) was/were glowing amber on his card.

Damn!
10.2 is coming Sat., and I just picked up an Aironet 350 I'm using in my Lombard w/ a Linksys wireless 4-port.... Maybe no luck now...

Can anyone say what non-airport cards, such as I would need in my Lombard, DO work in Jaguar?
From the Cisco wireless mac s/w page:
