Anyone have a driver for a Farallon Etherwave NuBus card?
Posted by: Huxley on 2008-02-06 08:18:04
Hi guys,

As the subject states, I'm trying to find a driver for this Farallon Etherwave NuBus card that will work under System 7.1.

This card is working fine in my Mac IIfx, but only under System 7.6 (which seems to have drivers built in). I tried installing the only likely driver I could find (http://mywebpages.comcast.net/macdan/files/Farallon_Fast_EN_nubus.sit.bin), but it claims that there isn't a NuBus ethernet card installed.

Any help or tips would be great!

Well, as often happens, I answered my own question!

I found the correct driver at this site:

http://support.proxim.com

Or, more specifically:

http://proximtechnicalservice.com/support/farallon/cards/download/59xv23.sit.hqx

Here's the interesting thing: Despite what the above site claims, this driver works fine under System 7.1, and not just 7.5.5 or up (as stated). Good to know, eh?
