    Yooo,

    Got around to installing MorphOS 3.9 on my MDD G4 mac. What I have noticed is that when you boot with the install CD, it actually detects my wireless network. After installing MOS to the hard drive and rebooting, the wireless is still listed but it will no longer pick up any networks. I have the internal wireless card that I did pull from a G5. MorphOS 3.8 works great and kept a stable connection.

    Anyone have some suggestions to try out to get it working again? I may go back to 3.8 for the time being if this is just a bug/issue with 3.9.

    Thanks. :)

    -----------------Update:

    Turns out I forgot my 2nd hard drive had a MOS 3.6 install on it, so when everything booted up, it would mount/use the old 3.6 system/work partitions, whoops! :P Now wireless works great again.

    Updating from 3.7 to 3.8 I encountered problems with wifi connection, and the problem was B43 file from Mossys:Net directory.

    Using B43 file from 3.7 installation solved all my problems.
