Hi folks, Work's kept me quite busy, so little time to play. For the past few months, I've simply networked my Macbook Pro to my Hackintosh beast (via ethernet) and used it as a wireless access point. Everything was absolutely fine that way. However, in my drawer, I had the ASUS USB-N10 wireless adapter (tiny unit around 3 cm long and not very obtrusive) which I'd hoped to get working. In the past, I'd used the recommended drivers from ASUS but no luck, particularly with Snow Leopard. HOWEVER, tonight, I gave it another go and did some surfing. It was this site:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1461271
that prompted me to try and download the REALTEK drivers for 10.6 (as I'm running 10.6.7 VERY smoothly :D ). I found a valid download site here:
http://www.opendrivers.com/categorycomp ... page4.html
(navigate your way carefully through all the ad @#$!)
The driver is
Realtek RTL8192SU Wireless Driver 1079 Mac OS X 10.6
(this is the latest build, 1079).
Well, popped it in my HackPro and voilé! I'm on the network!

Hope this helps. :headbang:

Best wishes

Eco :wave:
 
Thank you! Worked for me on 10.6.7
 
Does it work in 10.6.8?
 
Please, upload driver somewhere. You link is dead. Google didn't helped.

Hmmm? Link still works for me, but I see the layout is changed. It's the 4th driver from the bottom....but I'll upload the file for you (saves you wading through a lot of 'interesting' o_O stuff).

Regards

Eco

Thank you!
Old link is working?
I tried open that site from iPod. Maybe site is not support it.

Thanks a lot! :thumbup:

It still connected and disconnected continuously on my 10.6.7 with 32 & 64 bit :(
 
I can confirm a USB-N10 working in 10.6.8 with the drivers that Ecoarena has posted in this thread. Thanks!
 
Confirming that ecoarena's driver works in 10.7 with ASUS USB-N10. (These are drivers for USB-N11 though.)

Thanks !

ps: ASUS USB-N10 does not work in 10.7 with latest drivers from ASUS website, neither from CD that was delivered with it
