how do i get my wireless NIC to work under Leopard?

Q. a few have done it before but i just can't figure out how, it's a Linksys WUSB54G v1 that uses the Prism2 chip set, god bless anyone that can figure this out for me.

A. Linksys does not offer a driver for non-Windows systems

You'll need to go to the Mac Forums and see if there is a workaround.


Why does my desktop PC intermittantly lose the connection to my WIFI router?
Q. My desktop PC will sometimes lose the connection to my WIFI router. I can be surfing the web and suddenly any page I connect to will time out. I still show an excellent connection between my PC and router. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software for my USB WIFI adapter on my PC.

The router is a Linksys WRT54GC and it's been updated to the latest firmware. My PC connects to the router via a Linksys WUSB54G using the latest firmware.

I have another laptop that connects wirelessly to the same router but I experience zero issues. I think this eliminates the router being bad.

My PC is an old HP running WXP SP2 loaded with the latest security updates and patches. Ad-aware loaded with the latest build.

Help?
I forgot to mention, once the connection drops if I wait 5 - 10 min the connection will restore itself as if nothing happened.

A. Hard question. Normally I would look at the transmit frequency of the router, but since you said you have a NB that's working fine, I would look at the keep-alive, or RTS threshold settings in the Network Card Properties on the desktop. (You can increase these per MFG spec to keep the activity check high so the NIC doesn't drop and reset its connection to the WAP) Also check and make sure there's no power saving function on your NIC that's shutting the thing down. (This is under Power Management in Control Panel) Hope this helps.
