Hello,

I've got 3 wifi adapters and no good Mac drivers.

One is a D-Link DWL-650+ PC Card. It uses a Texas Instruments chipset. ACX100 I believe.

The second is a TRENDnet TEW-421PC PC Card. It uses a Marvell chipset.

The third is the stupid D-Link DWL-122 USB adapter. Some version of a Prism chipset.

I've tried orangeware's, ioxpert's and a universal driver from Macsense with no luck. I'm looking to use one of these (preferably the TRENDnet since it's 'g') with a 550 MHz TiBook running OS X.4 and occasionally OS 9.

Thanks.

Try to find an Intel Pro 100 or variation thereof. They're pretty cheap. I'm using one in my G5 running 10.4.3 with no additional driver. Just plugged it in and it works.
