TL-WN422G USB wireless (chipset Atheros AR9271) not working

[buckingham011]

Hi All,

sorry as my English not very well. Hopefully everyone can understand my English.

My problem is TL-WN422G USB wireless (chipset Atheros AR9271)
I’ve already tried everything to install it on BT5r1 but still not working.

My host OS is Mac OSX (10.7.5) and I have 2 OS in my virtualbox, which are BT5r1 and WindowsXP. The USB wireless running smoothly in WindowsXP but not in BT5r1.
I tried installing BT5r3 in my virtualbox but still no luck.

FYI the USB wireless and BT5r1 were perfectly run on my previous Dell notebook.

after 3 months searching, googling, read any related issue on Internet and tried all solutions in this forum especially posting from maverick35 my USB wireless still not working.

This is the info what I’ve done
