Recommend a wireless USB adaptor that is Mac compatible?

As I really need my MacBook to see wifi networks and not being able to wait to see if 10.5.3 fixes up the airport problems I was wondering if anyone has used and can recommend a wireless USB adaptor?
Thanks for any help

I haven't used it, but it is sold by a Mac-centric vendor that I trust, OWC. If they sell it, it probably works well with Macs.

I need a wireless usb adaptor for a Power Mac G4... any suggestions? (needs to be compatible)

I need a wireless usb adaptor for a Power Mac G4... any suggestions? (needs to be compatible)

With Mac OS X 10.3 or higher, a number of USB Wi-Fi adapters would be possible to use. However, for an earlier operating system, a wireless Ethernet bridge (such as the examples below) can be a better (and sometimes the only) option. A wireless Ethernet bridge does not normally require special drivers, and can thus be used with almost any Ethernet-equipped computer.

I used to work on my 3000 photos with GIMP on a P.C, but since I had a breakdown, I would like to carry on on my Mac as soon as possible.
Figuring out unaided a new OS after a breakdown is the best prescription for another breakdown.
Before going back to editing your photos, I suggest you need to familiarise yourself with your new OS. Get a book (eg, David Pogue's "Missing Manual…") -- now, that Lion's been out and about for some time, you can probably get the Snow Leopard (aka Mac OS X v10.6) edition at a discount. Take the time to read it and understand it, and you'll spare yourself a mountain of frustration. There are enough similarities between Mac OS X and Windows to fool you into believing almost everything works the same way, when, of course, it doesn't -- many similarities are only skin-deep.
Once you've done that, you'll be in a better position to install and use GIMP or look for alternatives.
where do I find the exact version (in french)
For French issues, you are probably better off checking the forums on MacBidouille or MacGeneration.

Linksys Wireless USB Adaptor

Is my iMAC G4 compatible with a Linksys Wireless USB Adaptor?

Linksys does not make any Mac OS drivers for that device.

Need a wireless usb adapter that works with my iMac G4 Flatscreen

I have an iMac without an airport card. I am trying to find a thrid party solution. Does anyone know of a third party wireless usb adapter that works with my Mac?

Hi Bill I noticed that list you posted mainly shows devices that require purchasing 3rd party drivers from companies such as ioxperts.
If you use a device that has ralink chipset you can use their drivers free of charge.

Is there a good but free word processor that's Mac compatible?

I don't know where else this question would belong so I just put it here. So, my question is: Is thier a free (but decent) word processor that's Mac compatible that I can download off of the internet? I've already used up my free trial of "Pages" that came with my iMac. I'd also like it to be able to save and print off text documents and also be PC compatible as well.

Hi, you already have Text Edit, I use BEAN//it's pretty good, but you can Google your requirements and there are quite a few "freebies"

Want to Buy Camcorder that has Mac Compatible Software

I am in the market for a Camcorder in the $300 - $400 price range. I would like to find one that has Mac compatible software. All the ones that I have checked on Amazon, etc. are only PC compatible.
Are there any Mac compatible Camcorders available in my price range?
Thanks,
Jim

Most consumer camcorders will work with iMovie, which comes preinstalled on your Mac. You don't need any special software to capture/ingest the footage.

I own Adobe CS4 for PC, but recently purchased a Mac. Can my license be transferred to a download that is Mac compatible?

No, it cannot. Platform swaps only for current versions, meaning CS4 and I'm afraid you are long past any upgrade eligibility, too. that and of course CS4 is not compatible with current versions of OSX. So before endlessly wasting time, simply sign up for Creative Cloud.

[solved] Wireless USB adaptor says its something its not?

So I have a TP-Link TL-WN321G USB adaptor I just purchased. I was looking up chipset and drivers for it but when I do lsusb it comes back with
ID 148f:2070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2070 Wireless Adapter
This seems strange to me as everywhere I lookup this adaptor online it says its a RT2571 or RT73 drivers, yet my computer is saying RT2070 for whatever reason?
Anyone have any ideas as to why this is or does mine somehow have a different chipset?
Thanks
Edit: Stupid enough to forget the adaptor model
Last edited by SiegeMachine (2011-01-14 07:17:20)

I got that adaptor expecting that chipset for a certain purpose but thats why I was confused when it didn't operate as expected and then when I checked I was like what the heck is this? It would appear I have a different revision using a different chipset now so I'll have to return it and look into getting another one then.

Netgear MA111 Wireless USB Adaptor - Linux Enterprise V5

I have installed Linux Enterprise V5 on my laptop (Sony VAIO). Does any one know how I can get my Netgear MA111 USB Adaptor to work with this OS? I am fairly new to linux.
Mahomed Suria

Hi Tommy,
Since my last post , I have installed linux-wlan-ng-0.2.8 and followed the following installation instructions :
run Configure
make
make all
make install
This got me a start up script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/wlan, but when I run it gives me following error:
Starting WLAN Devices: FATAL Module p80211 not found
Failed to load p80211.o
So at present I am trying to work out what that means!!!
In answer to your question , the command /sbin/lsusb -v gives :
idVendor 0x0846 Netgear, Inc
idProduct 0x4110 MA111 WiFi (v1)
bDeviceClass 0 (Defined at interface level)

Wireless USB Network Card for Mac?

Can the iMac G4 (Flat Panel) recognize/use USB 2.0 (is it reverse compatible?) I For some reason I cannot get my wireless to connect reliably (will try the suggestion I received). My Ethernet connection is also not working. I would like to try a USB connector, but all of them I can find in store and even ebay are USB 2.0.
Thanks

Many of the USB 2.0 wireless adapter will work, but because USB 1.1 is so slow, the speed of the connection will be limited.
I have this one from OWC that is 802.11g capable
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/MXP802GU2/
Your iMac G4 needs to have Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later (due to its driver that you install). It works with my older Mac (a PowerBook) that has USB 1.1. However, due to the port speed, it only works at about the same speed as 802.11b.
As for your current problem, if you have not used the reset PMU procedure, you can give that a try.

Which wireless USB adaptor with PowerMac G4

I don't have Airport & just got WiFi hotspot - was wondering what usb wireless adaptor would work with a G4

Hello,
These work far better than an Airport card...
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/MXP2802GU2/
And even better with a 10' USB extension cable...

USB adaptor speed for Mac Air

I'm going to be purchasing a MAP but am concerned about what I'm reading regarding speed when hooking up to an office jack. Due to work, I'll be doing this very often. Are there alternatives to increase speed outside of WiFi? A main purchasing reason was due to it's weight & portability so I wouldn't go with the laptop.

I presume you are referring to the USB Ethernet adapter?
It is rated as 10/100 Mbps. The USB 2.0 port itself is rated at 480Mbps though it has a lot of overhead. Both of these should be faster than your ISP connection unless you are very lucky.
802.11g WiFi speeds should be comparable to the USB Ethernet speed.
802.11n WiFi speeds could be faster to the USB Ethernet speed.
Again, both of these should be faster than your ISP connection unless you are very lucky.
The 10/100 Mbps speed from a practical standpoint will only make a visible difference for machine to machine transfers where the other devices are 10/100/1000 Mbps capable.
