And, even, though that Tenda has individual drivers on their website for each iteration of OS X from 10.3 to the present.

I managed to find another driver for Leopard maybe, Version 3?, if I remember correctly would manage to get me as far as having the Wireless Utility Adapter open but the app looks barren and doesn't seem to notice or show that the USB dongle is plugged.

Could it be because the program is Universal instead of PPC? I don't know.
