The Prism II chipset is a B network chipset... there's no such thing
as a Prism II device that supports G networks (except inasmuch as G
networks are backward-compatible with B networks). The DWL-122 (and
all other Prism II devices) can already *find* all networks, but if a
G network has no B clients on it, then it will never receive any
packets suitable for reinjection to that network.
I'd say use the DWL-122 to stumble for networks passively (possibly
in combination with Airport Extreme), and use it to attempt to crack
networks: it is capable of all the attacks in KisMAC. The only
guarantee is that - like every other adapter (for now) - it won't be
able to reinject packets to G-only networks.
Well I bought the DWL-122 and it works but since it's only B there is not much I can do unless you guys have any tips for me? Besides tips for that, have any other ones for me to use with this USB 122?
Does anyone ahve any suggestions for a USB device with the Prism II chipset that supports B & G?
Thanks!

I second the recommendation for the DWL-122. Works great. Plus it'll also work on the new Intel Macs (in Kismac only, not in OS X)
So you won't be able to use it as a Wifi connection, but considering that all of the Intel Macs come with a Airport Extreme card (which also supports 802.11a BTW), D-Link not providing a Intel driver for OS X shouldn't be a problem.

I have (and recommend) the DWL-122... just be sure you're getting the 802.11b (original) model, not the DWL-G122 as the G model is not Prism2. --
