Can you recommend on a USB Wifi device?

[trueicecold]

Hello all,

 

I'm running a CQ61 Compaq Presario, and a Mac OSX 10.6.2. Everything works perfectly, except the wifi (Atheros AR9285 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter). Instead of killing myself trying to make it work (I've tried endless kexts), I need a usb wifi device detectable by 10.6.2 (I first installedthe 10.6 universal distro, and updated to 10.6.2, if it matters).

 

Can someone recommend me of a model?

 

Thanks a lot

I have the same laptop. I'm working on getting lan and wifi to function.

Did your lan rtl8101e/8102 work without modifications?

If I get wifi working with some atheros kext I will let you know.

Btw does sleep work for you?

 

got lan working only with arch=i386
