Compatible USB Wifi adapter (ideally w/ 10.7.2 & 64bit)?

[featherodd]

Hey Homies,

Anyone know a compatible USB Wifi card with drivers that work on the latest Lion, possibly even in 64bit? That would be awesome!

I made an "Airport" card a while back for main desktop but also got a laptop I'd love to get working Wifi on.

Thanks guys.

You can read my post about it. Though you might want to try to find something a bit more compatible.....

thanks for the info! your post mentions lion drivers for the RT2870. interesting, just found these posts:

seems like there were a few issues. though might have been resolved in the latest driver (4.1.8.).

hmm, how to find a USB adapter using that chipset... typically I buy from ncix or new newegg.

so no? those adapters do not use the Railink RT2870 chipset and are not compatible with 10.7.2 in 64bit?
