b0N3z Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I use an alfa awus036neh which is sold in the hakshop. Depending on which OS (10.8, 10.9, 10.10, 10.11) you are using, you will have to install drivers to get the usb wifi card to work. I have mine working with 10.11 but you have to install a driver and a kext to make it functional. Before buying a usb wifi dongle check out the maker and make sure there is a driver and or kext for the Version of OSX you are using. If you have the awus036neh let me know and I will find the artical that I used to get it working properlly. On a side note, it might be more worth it to get a wifi dongle that supports 5Ghz connections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
