Linksys WUSB600N & new RALINK v4.1.1.0 driver working

[psenechal]

I had finally gotten my WUSB600N to work with v2 of the RALINK drivers...what made it finally work was running Kext Utility after modifying the Info.plist and then rebooting. So I decided to try the newest v4 driver on their website. I went through the same procedure.

1. Install the driver (RTUSB D2870-4.1.1.0 UI-4.0.2.0_2011_0)
2. Reboot
3. Modify /System/Library/Extensions/RT2870USBWirelessDriver.kext with TextWrangler
4. Change the <integer> value for Linksys RT2870 - 2 to 121. Save and quit
5. Run Kext Utility
6. Reboot

Plugged in my WUSB600N and the RALINK Wireless Utility popped right up. No problems connecting to my wireless network.

HI Psenechal,

I followed all your directions but with no result...

Could this not be working for me because I am on 10.7.3. Or because my system profile is set to mac pro 4,1?

Thanks,

Pepo

Is it possible you could post a download link to your driver? For whatever reason the latest driver doesn't open the Wireless Utility App and an older (2.0) version of the driver I have doesn't detect the USBs. Could you post your driver so I could test if my USB600n v2 works properly?
