I'm having the same issue. AWUS036NH


Wont work with Mt Lion.


What I've read thus far.


There might be a work around, however it involves a beta driver, and booting into 32x mode every time.

From what I can tell, it's only supported up until 10.7


Are there any people out there who have had any luck finding drivers for this wireless chip?

That thread: http://xiaopan.co/forums/threads/alfa-awus036nh-awus036neh-mountain-lion-driver- utility.564/

has pictures of the AWUS036NH (RT3070) is working on Mountain Lion (10.8.2) 64-bit mode using the latest driver and utility. As far as the RTL8187L is concerned, it was only offically supported to 10.5. With some fiddling, you can get it to work up to 10.7.4. This video might help others develop a solution, I tried on 10.8 but it did not work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9GnRHgqesU


If someone has the rtl8187l kext files, I would like to hear from you.


ALFA state that:


AWUS036H is not compatible to Mac OS 10.6.7 and later version, due to the chipset manufacture has stopped its driver update for this particular model. In countermeasure, we have verified that our AWUS036NH, AWUS036NEH, AWUS051NH, and AWUS036NHR are compatible to Mac OS 10.6.8.
