I have put it together with a short README in a tarfile here:
http://www.io.com/~phlbbrtn/kext.tgz

Read the instructions and follow them. I am not responsible if you don't know your way around the terminal prompt!

Phil,
Greetings from beautiful Jamaica. Thanks for this download link and the clear instructions. It seems to cure the Connection delay which, besides completely locking up the Finder on my iBook, I personally found exceedingly annoying. I'm really happy about this fix; the modem in my AirPort Base Station was cremated during a violent electrical storm, and I've had to tolerate the spinning beachball for a couple months. I'll keep you posted as to whether it keeps working in a couple weeks. So far, No Problem, Mon! Thanks again.

Jody.

Followed the instructions in your readme and it seems to be working fine on my year 2000 ibook.

Thanks for the .tgz file and readme. However, I was just curious, in my man page, there was no -R for mv, only -f and -i. What does the -R do, is it supposed to move things recursively? I just logged in as root to move the .kext around (seemed easiest that way since it was a directory).

-R is indeed "recursively"

FWIW, I installed the patch of few days ago and thus far have had zero hangs or pauses.

Very happy as I've suffered (very badly) from this bug since 10.0 way back in April 2001.

Oops. I was trying to recreate from memory the steps. Just use cp -R. I will change the readme.
