I'm sorry in advance... I posted this to a netgear customer dis-service survey:
WE DON'T SERVE YOUR KIND HERE!
Look, I know that just because I have a mac I'm in a "airport lockout zone" and that netgears lack of mac support is compliance with an airport monopoly. That didn't stop the chip manufacturer from making a driver, that didnt stop D-Link from making a driver that works with your MA-111. I know that I am not the only mac user to have unfortunately have ended up with one of your usb wifi devices as the only alternative to get online. I know that some mac user at netgear sitting in a corner somewhere has a whole cluster of answers for mac users. how hard is it to configure a UNIX driver? I WAS NEVER ASKED A SINGLE QUESTION!!! See it's this kind of revolving door, "sorry for any incovience" Bull S**t that gets this posted all over web!
Thanks for Nothing!

whew... I feel beter already.
ok now to the problem, I have an imac DV 400 on 10.3.9 and a friend gave me a netgear MA111 usb wifi dongle. I downloaded a driver from the chip maker, turns out to be a rev 2 so that doesn't work.
then I heard some voodo about using a D-Link driver
tried it ---NIX
so I had some tech guys I know make me a 50 foot Enet cable.
Solution BUY AN AIRPORT CARD!
