journal06, the result of using the "iwidarwin"

This is what its look like after I continue from the previous post about installing a hackintosh using an iAtkos 5i, the one that I tweak few changes in the "customize" setting and get it work. So I follow the rest of the thread by installing an apps that control the wifi using an iwidarwin and use a copy of PROSet/Wireless 2100 OS X 10.5 SVN latest and install it. as a result this comes up in the status bar near right up corner.

Here is What i cant understand, the generic airport app cannot detect anything (see below left) 



And if i use the proset/wireless apps and set it to "set power to OFF" it'll actually detect networks as you can see below.
I dont know what actually happended, and for what ever that is i cant tell whats the problem because after i choose any available network, and click "connect" nothing happens. After quite sometimes all turns to fail when this happens.
Well I ask for counseling and found out that the iwidarwin project is a community project which has ended years ago. It was a complete hopeless project because apple just wont support the intel chipset. I also learn that you can just update or patched a kext to make it work. The only solution to this outcome is that is to change the hardware what a more compatible specs. better get your card ready to buy some second hand stuff from ebay. You might want to find a wifi MINI PCI Atheros chipset. You can read the post about it later.
