Hello,

i´m looking for a solution to use my usb wifi adapter (TP-Link WN821N V2).

The Adapter has a AR9170 / AR 9105 Chipset. For Lion i used D-Link 160 kext with modified info.plist. This kext is an only 32 bit kext and i can't use it with mavericks.

Does anyone have an idea that allows to recompile the kext in 64 bit?

I'm guessing you don't have the source code for the kext. If that's the case, how do you plan to compile it? Besides that, converting from 32-bit to 64-bit isn't just a matter of recompiling; the kext has to be written to be 64-bit.
