I should have been more specific,  if it's a DWL-122 and they say Tivo
compatible, then I'm pretty sure it is kasmac compatible.

I'm sure since I've gotten mine, Tivo has added to there compatibility
list and new devices that aren't prism2 might work, so... don't take
my word for anything.

Are you sure about that? Because most of these say Tivo compatible:

But they are WUSB11 version 2.8, which supposedly isn't a prism2 but rather
atmel chipset, and not supported by Kismac, according to this:

there are a ton of prism2 usb's out there for far less than $100.  Try ebay.

Here's a link

If it says it's Tivo compatible than it's prism2.
