I have bought this product today :
RO80211BI-USB , it's an usb wireless device based on prism 2.x chipset.
On kismac it works correctly,but can i use it also in mac os X ( such a network device
to connect on the other wi-fi networks, etc. ? ) what driver should i use ? I try belikin
driver and IOexperts driver and they don't work.
Thx all.

Best bet is the D-Link DWL-122 driver, but you will have to hack it. First install it.
Ok i've installed it.
Then open package contents on both intersil drivers in the Extensions folder.
Icarus:/System/Library/Extensions lupsyn$ ls -la | grep ntersil

Icarus:/System/Library/Extensions lupsyn$ ls -la | grep  ntersil
drwxr-xr-x    3 root    wheel   102  9 Sep  2003 Intersil Prism2.kext
drwxr-xr-x    3 root    wheel   102  9 Sep  2003 IntersilBase.kext
Icarus:/System/Library/Extensions lupsyn$
Then open Info.plist in both of the open Contents folders with either BBEdit or the Property List Editor.

But where in intersil prism2.kext or IntersilBase ?
Icarus:/System/Library/Extensions lupsyn$ ls -la Intersil\ Prism2.kext/Contents/ | grep Info.pl
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1747 9 Sep 2003 Info.plist
Icarus:/System/Library/Extensions lupsyn$
Icarus:/System/Library/Extensions lupsyn$ ls -la IntersilBase.kext/Contents/ | grep Info.pl
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 5155 9 Sep 2003 Info.plist
Icarus:/System/Library/Extensions lupsyn$


Then duplicate the IOKitPersonality for the DWL. Give it a name, and then replace its vendor and product IDs with the ones for your device as gotten from Apple System Profiler.
What ? i don'nt understand this things, i must see in the apple profiler what ?

Throw away the kextcache and reboot.

It's complicated, but it works with the Syntax wireless USB Prism2 device, so it may well work for yours.
