Got Snow Leopard: Wifi Not Working

[harry20larry]

A friend gave me a copy of the dev release of snow leopard and I really like it but my wifi isn't working so it kinda sucks.
Basically I can connect to a network, and it then says that network is giving no internet connect, when I know it is because I am connect now via ethernet.
Does anybody have a solution?

Used a supported version of OS X and not a Developer beta?

I would say report your bug to Apple.

Oh wait, you're using what is essentially a pirated version of SL.

Uninstall and wait until September?

Thanks for the helpful comments guys, don't worry I fixed it by clearing off the locations and starting a fresh, thanks though for the input

btw, the friend is a registered developer and I am one of his testers, please be less offensive next time

Okay, so the friend is a registered developer, and it's a developer beta that Apple clearly doesn't want in the hands of everyone. What kind of response did you expect?

One thing I really like about the StackOverflow site is that when Joel Spoelsky designed it, he wanted people to answer the questions that were asked, regardless of whether or not there was a different way to go about it. The idea being that perhaps someone is doing something the way they are for a specific reason. It's too bad to see all these condescending replies to the OP's question when we could have actually been helpful to someone else who runs into this issue by trying to offer support.

So then he should take his question there? My point is that it's a developer beta, which he really shouldn't have as he's not a developer. Then, he comes to a public forum where there may or may not be people using that same beta and asks for help. So, help was given: get off the beta.

The beta can be given to aid testing

Limitations apply. Since you are "a friend", no you cannot have it.

Being a friend does not qualify. You might want to actually read the terms before assuming what they mean.
