epicvengeance Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 I need a cheap wifi adapter (less than 25 ish). It could be either usb or or pci. Preferably something that would also work with backtrack, and something that has good range. This will be used for Windows 7, Ubunto 10, Snow leopard, and Back track. Thanks guys.

bellbottom Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 This One: http://cgi.ebay.es/USB-2-0-54Mbps-802-11g-...=item3cad05deed Works perfectly in Snow Leopard with Ralink official driver. Maybe this other one: http://cgi.ebay.es/USB-WIFI-54Mbps-WIFI-Wi...=item3eff290114 Not tested by me, but i think use the same ralink chip, Cheers.

epicvengeance Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 2 things I should have mentioned. 1. I will only use wireless -G. A card with N will be useless, even if it is backwards compatible, because I am under a budget. Rather get wireless g than wireless n thats backwards compatible, unless they cost the same. 2. Some thing that will last and will work with airport. not a 2 dollar card off ebay that wont work Preferably newegg?

epicvengeance Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 Does it support snow leopard? And does it work the airport utility? I don't want to install drivers for it.

Snow yes, Airport utility no, but it has it's own utility (replaceable with nifty prefpane (on the forum) if u want). No drivers = noway Greetz, Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/220258-cheapest-wifi-adapter/#findComment-1493346 Share on other sites More sharing options...
