I've managed to install it and it will turn on the RX light. I am just running into a couple of problems that are probably really basic: 1) Does anyone know what device this might run under? I'm thinking it will be a /dev/aue device, but I have no idea what the major/minor number is for that. 2) I read somewhere else that there is firmware that needs to be downloaded into it before it will work? Is this a one time thing, or everytime thing? 3) Any other pointers? Should I even bother? Any help I can get would be great. I'm probably just going to bring it back if I can't get it to work. I was hoping that SMC would be smart and just make it look like a standard USB Ethernet, but even if it is, I still can't figure out how to setup one of those, let alone wireless. Thanks in advance.
