Ralink Rt7X Wireless Lan Card Mac OS XOne of the biggest problems with installing Mac OS X on an MSI Wind has been the lack of proper Wi-Fi support.The easiest way to fix it is to pick up a cheap Dell card and replace the one that comes with the machine.It costs around 15 and acts just like a real Aiport card in a real Mac.
![]() The official Wind still ships with a Realtek Wi-Fi card, so the replacement option is still the best way to go. But owners of the Wind clone Medion Akoya Mini will have the Ralink card inside (check the sticker on the bottom of the computer). Ralink Rt7X Wireless Lan Card Drivers For ThisThere were already drivers for this card, but the interface was quite hideous and the connection had to be manually re-established after sleep or a restart. We havent yet tested the new setup, as both of the Gadget Lab Hackintoshes have replacement Dell cards inside, but the reports from the MSI wind forum say that it works, although the interface is still pretty fugly. MSI Wind Forum member Svinto: The wireless utility starts automatically at login and seems to connect automatically as long as you make a profile for your preferred network. What is most interesting about this development is that Ralink is effectively supporting Hackintoshes. As every new Mac comes with Wi-Fi, there is no need for anyone to buy a third party card, especially not a Mini-PCI card. These drivers are probably only going to be used in Frankenmacs. We think this is great, although the rather paranoid Apple might think otherwise.
