Built my hackintosh, its working great :D

I bought this guy D-Link DWA-131 Wireless-N Nano USB 2.0 Adapter 802.11b/g/n (draft) http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002VJL0OI/&tag=tonymacx86com-20 and I am a little ways away from my router but it is deathly slow/has random disconnects and sorry if this is the wrong forum to post in as well

any help would be greatly appreciated
 
I've just bought and installed this and got it running in both Snow Leopard and then Lion with no problems.

Use the relevant driver from this page:

THe first time I installed the Lion driver, I got a KP - but booted into Lion using the -x (safe mode) extension once and then tried again and it was fine. Alternatively try booting in using rBoot or iBoot.

I have occasionally had a message pop up telling me the .kext is improperly installed, but the Wifi will keep working during that session and then on a reboot the message goes away. I've used the dongle happily on 2 installations (I've just converted my laptop to Hackintosh too).

Hope this helps
