Has anyone tried one of these in a PC dual boot with Leopard & Vista

Does it work with both OS's?

This uses a Ralink RT-2561T chipset. Driver packages seem to be available for Tiger & Panther but not Leopard are drivers cross platform compatible?

I removed my PCI Wireless Belkin card and got a WUSB600N

Download USBWirelessUtility ver 10.5 and edit 2 files and it works great!

Hi Icchansan

My card is a Pluscom PCI card it has the Ralink RT-2561 Turbo Wireless chipset.

I found a driver for the Linksys WUSB600N which has the same chipset as my Pluscom PCI card. The driver is from here:

http://www.liquidfists.com/mac/USBWireless-10.5.zip

I then used the instructions for installation in this thread:

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=131932

I installed the driver package, updated the two info.plist files, shut down, installed the card, re-booted but the card is still not recognized and cannot be seen in the installed setup utility, Airport, or networking section.

Any ideas?

OOPS

Can you point me to the drivers you used?

Man theres not support for your chipset (TR2561) on leopard, just tiger, you can find mine on my signature, but my chipset is RT73 which Linksys WUSB600N uses too.

Check the list that I told you, to get better support, there cheaps ones
