I have no idea what kind of wifi chipset it is, you can try below command to force rtw driver attach: #update_drv -a -i '"pci1186,3300"' rtw Please feedback to me the result, and post the /etc/release info, so that I can send you a debug version rtw driver to help you test. The rtw driver support list in http://opensolaris.org/os/community/laptop/wireless/rtw was from old NetBSD/rtw manual page, it might be incorrect.
