Hey guys,
a few days ago, I got the TP-Link TL-WN881ND. I injected the Device ID 168c,30a4 into AirPortAtheros40.kext inside IO80211Family.kext and it appears as AirPort Extreme.

For those of you, who don't know how to inject a Device ID, here is the kext for ML. Simply install it with KextBeast and restart.

Thx.

Alternatively, one can use an Injector (attached).
The advantage is that you do not have to touch the original Apple s/w.
Which means, if there is ever an update to that original s/w, you have to do nothing and it will still work.
Otherwise, you will have to remember that you modified the Aethros kext the in the plugin folder of the 80211 kext, etc, etc.
With the Injector, it's a fire-n-forget missile.

Try it.
First, replace the original kext (or take out your edits from the info.plist) and re-install the kext (using kext wizard or whatever suites you).
Now, your wifi will not work (as the kext does not have your dev/ven id's).
Then, edit the info.plist of the injector and add your dev/ven id's and install the kext, then reboot.
