My adapter looks similar but is branded G-SKY and has a slightly differently case moulding.

Don't know exactly what version of the chip I have as it shows up as "RTL8187_Wireless"

 

works on my macBook Pro with 10.6.4

 

I'm using it now to connect to a wifi cafe across the street :-)

the internal antenna's no good for the same connection

Hi all!

I just bought a AWUS036NH, I am using the ralink drivers version 3.0.3.0 under macox leopard.The adapter works very well, the problem is that the ralink wireless tool keeps crashing as soon as I either select a protected network (WEP or WPA it doesn't matter) or I try to add a profile....

 

The Wireless Tool version is 3.0.0.0 (that is the latest AFAIK)

any kind of help will be much appreciated...thanks

Asus USB-N13 partly working on P5K-CM vanilla 10.6.5 + myHack bootloader

 

This USB stick wifi adapter says on the box "Turns your PC into a Wireless Router"

and the CD contains drivers for Win XP, 7, Linux, and MacOS-X. Just the thing

for setting up an ad hoc network? Not for me. First the drivers on the disk are

10.3, 10.4, 10.5 The Ralink site has at 3 December 2010 a 10.6 driver

RTUSB D2870-3.0.3.0 UI-3.0.0.0_2010_10_29.dmg which installs the

Ralink Wireless Utility.app and S/L/E/RT2870USBWirelessDriver.kext

(plenty of network instructions for Windows, not much for Mac, and all screenshots are 10.4)

 

After reboot open SystemPreferences/Network and be notified "A new Interface has been found"

I chose to leave this as "configure by DHCP", altho' manual config didn't help much.

NB the interface type is "802.11 n WLAN", not "Airport", this is significant:

I am not offered the option to "Show Airport status in menu bar";

I don't get any of the airport network creation or joining options from SystemPreferences;

all of the setup and network choices are done from the RalinkWirelessUtility, but

I must have the USB stick plugged in at boot time for it to be recognised.

 

I can setup an ad hoc network on my laptop (Asus eee 1008H HackOS 10.6.4 Atheros9285)

and the N13 will join this, I can watch movies from my big media HD shared to the netbook,

but I cannot get an internet connection to the netbook from my ADSL, which was the point of the exercise,

and why I put "partly" in the first line. Just sayin' ;-)
