I bought this because I saw Mac drivers on D-Link's web site. Didn't notice or pay much attention to fact that latest driver was only for Mac Lion. The installer appeared to work but the instructions on it talk about stuff in Network preferences which simply isn't there and nothing worked. Did a bit more research and discovered via Google that it contains a Realtek rtl8192su chip, so I went to the Realtek web-site and found a mountain lion driver but the link pointed at a javascript void. Decided to try opening the web page in Safari instead of Firefox and voila, the link worked - downloaded Wlan_11n_USB_MacOS10.8_Driver_UI_2.0,1 De-installed the previous driver as required in the instructions in the first dialog of the new installer (using the de-installer for the previous driver, not the one in the new driver software package) The installer seemed pretty much the same as the previous driver, again with the nonsense instructions BUT when I rebooted, a blue light started flashing on the USB drive and a special Wifi dialog box opened, from which I was able to connect to Wifi. It doesn't integrate at all with the Mac Airport pie indicator on the top bar, but it does work. Note that "it just worked" there was no need to poke around in network preferences as suggested in the instructions - your mileage may vary though. The good: Once you have it working, it seems reliable and faster than the inbuilt Wifi was. It is tiny - the plan is to leave it in all the time and the macbook can still be slid in and out of its cover with a little care. The price was pretty good! The bad: Getting it working (on a mac!) requires hunting and detective work. The Realtek installation driver gives unnecessary and incorrect instructions. Whilst functional, the configuration/connection tool is clunky and not as intuitive as Mac users might typically expect. ## Frequently Bought Together - D-Link Wireless N-300 Mbps USB Wi-Fi Network Adapter (DWA-131) - VCMII VCM2 Diagnostic Cable OBD2 Main DLC Test Cable F-00K-108-663 F00K108663 Replacement of Part No.164-R9801 Works for Ford VCMII VCM2 - Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-B 2.0 Cable for Printer or External Hard Drive, Computer Compatible, Gold-Plated Connectors, Black, 6 Foot --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/49280065-dwa-131](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/49280065-dwa-131) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
