What is the maximum distance this adapter will work at for wireless internet, and would being on another floor be an issue?

Hello AK, it should not be an issue, the range on these is about 100-150 feet. It will also depend on whether you are attempting to go through brick, concrete, or metal. In addition it will mostly depend on the wireless router you use. With a good quality router and simple wood construction you should have no problem. I have been outside my home with this and it has been OK at about 30 feet through block walls.

Do I need to install a disk or download programming to get it to work?

On Linux & Windows 10 it is plug n play; however I got poor range on Ubuntu 14.04 (Linux.) On Windows 10 all you need to do is plug in the device & re-boot your pc the driver is automatically installed. An icon will appear in the lower right corner just left click on it & Windows 10 will walk you through the setup process. I got a strong signal on Windows 10 throughout my entire house!

does this work with windows 10?

highly unlikely. I know it doesn't work with Windows 7 and is making an awesome paperweight on my desk at the moment.

Will this work on a Mac OS X 10.6.8 -Belkin F5D7050

I do not know about a Mac; however it works with Ubuntu 14.04 (Linux)....extremely POOR range! I put my router within 15 ft of it and still only gets one bar signal strength. I bought mine from Rally Bargains Inc.
