I do not see a mac driver. Here:
1:2 USB 2.0 USB Specification USB Cables, Hubs & Adapters. USB CABLE CHARGER FOR APOGEE ONE FOR IPAD & MAC. USB CABLE LEAD CHARGER FOR LENOVO W770 WIRELESS HEADSET. Make Offer - EDUP 150Mbps WiFi USB Adapter Wireless Network LAN Card f PC Laptop Windows Mac.
My experience is that these low cost wifi dongles use a software driver. The software will use a lot of cpu time on older processors.
