Internet Connect 1.2.0 (Mac OS 10.3.x/10.4.x)

Internet Connect 1.2.0 is the recommended 802.1X configurator for Mac OS users (versions 10.3.9 and 10.4.x) accessing AirPennNet or AirSAS. To use Internet Connect 1.2.0, you need a wireless networking card that supports at least 802.11b (WiFi).

Internet Connect 1.2.0 includes the settings for AirPennNet and AirSAS and uses Apple's built-in Internet Connect application. It works with both the Mac OS 10.3.x and Mac OS 10.4.x versions of Apple's Internet Connect application.

Mac OS 10.5 Leopard Compatibility

The Internet Connect 1.2.0 installer available here and on the PennConnect DVD does not work correctly with Mac OS 10.5 Leopard because Apple has significantly revised the network interface. Instructions for connecting to AirPennNet or AirSAS are located here. ISC intends to release a Mac OS 10.5-specific installer as soon as possible.
