Question 1

dolphin

Accepted Answer

are you wondering about the dolphin wii emulator then yes it does work you might need driverpack solution 14.0 or above

Question 2

Does this work with NOOBS/Raspberry Pi?

Accepted Answer

Yes, works great.  I didn't use NOOB.  Rather I dd'ed the image directly to the sdcard.  I've used both the vanilla raspian as well as wheezy-octopi raspian images.  Both work fine on the A and B+ models.  To disable the power saving feature of the device do this.  If you don't the rpi will turn the wifi device off after a period of time:vi /etc/modprobe.d/8192cu.confinsert into this file:options 8192cu rtw_power_mgnt=0For static IP addresses, edit /etc/network/interfaces, replace the contents with (adjusting IPs as required):auto loiface lo inet loopbackiface eth0 inet staticaddress 10.100.100.100netmask 255.255.255.0gateway 10.100.100.1auto wlan0allow-hotplug wlan0iface wlan0 inet staticaddress 192.168.100.100netmask 255.255.255.0gateway 192.168.100.1wpa-passphrase yourpassphrasewpa-ssid yourssidThen reboot.  YMMV....

Question 3

is this mac compatible?

Accepted Answer

I just installed it on a white MacBook running 10.8.  Edimax has drivers for all modern Mac OS versions including 10.9.  I was able to connect to my home wireless which uses WPA2-AES.  You don't use the regular drop-down to control like you would with the built in WiFi (Airport) card.  Edimax supplies a program called Wireless Network Utility.  Works fine but not as snazzy as the built in methods.I downloaded the software from here:http://www.edimax.us/html/english/frames/b-download.htm

Question 4

What kind of range does this have?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say, but it is better than the range of my built in Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection.  When I use my laptop outside on campus, my built in adapter has trouble connecting but this EDIMAX adapter stays connected and with higher bit rates.  This could be because this adapter can see 802.11.n whereas my built in one could not.  I can walk about 40 feet away from any campus building and still have a decent signal with this Edimax adapter.  But range really depends on how powerful your router is, and how many walls/objects the signals have to pass through.
