Have you reviewed the <a href="http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/hcl/" target="_blank">Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) </a> ?
Solaris doesn't particularly do Wi-Fi at the present time.
However the beta versions of the OS,
Solaris Express (Sol-11) and OpenSolaris
have supposed to have extensive abilities for it.

so.. now i wonder if i can use ndiswrapper (like with the unix/linux OS) to install windows drivers (*.inf) .. or... use realtek r8180 driver (DWL-510 = r8180).. but i can't find this driver on the HCL
well... if not... my solaris 10 would not be networking OS... a'm i right?

I have no idea whether it would work. Gut reaction ?... you're out of luck for the present time. # 4
Maybe you should try this one? http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/laptop/wireless/rtw/;jsessionid=7D603B2 DF194AC4914FADDC18B1919D2 soerendam at 2007-7-5 16:55:23 >

Thank you, Soerendam,
That's exactly what I was referring to in my original response, so long ago.
Hardware functional compatibility is from the Beta
and development-level distributions of the OS,
not from the stable commercial-quality distribution of Solaris.
This thread was originally from a previous Sun forum site.
The post dates that you see are from when
the forums were merged into the current forum web site,
not when the text was actually typed.
This thread was actually started in early 2005; quite some time ago.
