SMC 2.4GHz wireless Adapter . Product works great once you get the correct installation process. Could not get SMC utility to work. Had to load updated drivers and finally had to 'Turning on Wireless Zero Configuration' to get Windows networking to control the device.
SMC 2.4GHz Wireless-N Adapter USB Reviews
Linux compatible only with newer kernels . I bought this to replace an internal PCI card on my RHEL-clone 5.5 Linux PC,
which uses a 2.6.18 Linux kernel.

Unfortunately the drivers in this kernel don't fully work for this device;
it's recognized and you can set the WEP encryption keys, but not the SSID.

I tried it with my Knoppix Linux DVD (with a 2.6.31 kernel) and it comes up
without a problem and all parameters can be configured with standard wireless
tools like iwconfig.

So this is a great solution if you need a USB-ethernet adapter for a recent Linux
kernel but not for the more widespread Linux distributions like RHEL 5.5 which
are still on 2.6.18.
