Does anyone know how to fix this? My macbook is a C2D.

I could not get the latest svn of Madwifi drivers to work, instead I used the svn of Madwifi Macbook:

svn checkout http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/trunk macbook

I installed this version and my wireless is now working.

I've tried doing this several times and I am admittedly very limited when it comes to terminal commands. Is there some way that one of you more experienced people could take the daily snapshots or the svn version of the wireless walkthrough from the link and make it more dumb people friendly? For example: tell me where, what and when to type. Every time I get to the last couple lines of code it produces errors and tells me that no such directory exists. I can give more info, but maybe just a little more in depth walkthrough would be helpful. Thanks! Plus, I'm assuming that the Gutsy walkthrough still works for Hardy?

you need to post your error so we can tell you what the problem is. That guide is step by step, so it doesn't get much easier.
