I have been told that the DWA-140 can be used on my Mac G4 Tower and also my Mac Powerbook Pizmo.
I have installed the Ralink wireless utillity and it appears to be receiving the signal sent from my Virgin Router, but I don't get active web pages appearing in my Firefox browser.
Please can anyone advise me how to get the web to be active on my machines.
Many thanks,

Merton,
People dont know much about solving DWA-140 problems and moderators / dlink staff doesnt show up here a lot.
The best advice i can give you is to try google or a Mac specific problem.
As you can see, there are a lot of unfinished threads at this forum, regarding Windows 7 and MAC.
Ive got a DWA-140 and my conclusion is that its a good USB adapter with serious unsolved problems with some OS.

Many thanks for your advice and information.
I must admit, this has to be one of the poorest forums I have been on.
I attempted to register last night. Put in all my info and waited for the activation email.
A day later and still no activation email. Not even in my spam/junk folder.
No where on the site is a 'contact us' link to ask advice! In the end I have joined through another email.
And now I am advised that DWA-140 problems are very rarely sorted - on a D-link forum!!

Yes, i realized that when i faced some driver problems under Windows 7 x64...
It’s been like 3 months I’ve bought DWA-140 and it just doesn’t work right.
I’m experiencing a lot of problems with lag spikes, ping spikes, low throughput etc..
And that when i got it to work because ive spent more then 8 hours to get it going.
Its very sad that a worldwide company like Dlink doesn’t give the appropriate attention to their customers
