Works great on OSX, good for networking products

I have an iMac G5 at home with 10.4.11 and a bad network adapter. I downloaded the drivers from startech.com, ran the installer package, rebooted my computer, plugged it in and everything worked great. I think they solved the problem the previous reviewer had. By the way, never install the drivers that come with such a product. You can usually find newer models on the manufacturer's website.

Pros
  • Good to use
Cons
  • old

Not currently compatible with Mac OS X v. 10.4.8 and higher

The adapter does not work with my MacBook with OS X version 10.4.10 due to driver incompatibility. StarTech Technical Support advises that a "kernel change" starting with OS X version 10.4.8 is likely causing the incompatibility, and they have been working on a fix since July 24, 2007. Totally appreciated by a responsive, knowledgeable technical support team, but this product is not intended for Mac users in any other way: 1) imprecise installation instructions; 2) software provided on mini-CD…

Pros
  • is also understandable for the old
Cons
  • Some small things

Worked as advertised

I had an old TiBook with a bad ethernet port on the board. I was able to reestablish a wired connection with this adapter.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

Works great on OSX, best in USB network adapters

I have an iMac G5 at home with 10.4.11 and a faulty network adapter. I downloaded the drivers from startech.com, ran the installer package, rebooted my computer, plugged it in and everything worked great. I think they solved the problem the previous reviewer had. By the way, never install the drivers that come with such a product. You can usually find newer models on the manufacturer's website.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Almost everything available

StarTech Technical Support reports a "kernel change" as of OS X version 10.4.8 that is likely to cause incompatibility, and they have been working on a fix since July 24, 2007. Much appreciated by responsive knowledgeable tech support team, but this product is not for Mac users otherwise: 1) imprecise installation instructions; 2) software provided on mini-CD not playable on MacBook (requires CD

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Mostly good, but...
