felix Registered: 05/30/12 Posts: 4	I recently purchased a Wi-Fire Antenna from hField Technologies, unfortunately the antenna was connected to my mac before the software was installed. Does anyone have any experience with this, any recommendations? I've been trying to contact hFiled but their customer service and sales department appear to be on permanent vacation as they won't reply to emails or phone calls.

Download the Mac software, setup guide, read the FAQ's http://www.hfield.com/customer-service/ Make sure there are no entries in Network before rebooting. Delete them if so. _________________________ AppleCentral Trivia MM-MCF Trivia Call the Doctor

felix Registered: 05/30/12 Posts: 4	Hi Jim, Thanks but I've already tried this approach several times. Once I've installed the software, rebooted and connected the antenna the connection manager will not launch. If I open 'terminal' whilst I try and launchthe connection manager I get the following message: Last login: Wed May 30 17:51:45 on console Air:~ Felix$ /Applications/Wi-Fire\ Connection\ Manager.app/Contents/MacOS/Wi-Fire\ Connection\ Manager ; exit; Segmentation fault: 11 logout Any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
