Hello Have just gone through the wpantund installation guide using Hombrew on MacOS. Have the service started as a dameon:

Name           Status  User Plist
dbus           started root /Users/ajackson/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.dbus.plist

Plugged the USB device into two different USB hubs and neither show the device in the device tree.

There are no LED's on either of the two USB dongles i purchased. When plugged into Mac. However when I plug into RaspberryPi (Plan to use 2nd device for border router) I at least get a blue LED.

@alnjxn When plugged into Mac, was the USB power indicator(Green LED on the dongle) lighting up? Pls check the connection to ensure if the dongle is powered up correctly.

@caizelin seems that the dongle was not seated properly in the hub. Green light is on and I can now see the device in the tree. Sorry for not properly checking that prior to posting. Thanks for the quick reply.
