if this thing can be useful to you, I have just set up an ad-hoc wifi
network between BBB and macbook.
I use a tp-link tl-WN722N (that mounts the AR9271 atheros chip).
With this wifi-interface is only necessary to install atheros driver and
configure the wifi net. nothing more.
Here my configuration lines to /etc/network/interfaces
# WIFI ad-hoc
auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.2.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
wireless-channel 2
wireless-essid *name_of_the_ad_hoc_net*
wireless-key s:*password*
wireless-mode ad-hoc
be careful with your password. It is better if it does not contain strange
characters like &% $ # that they might not be interpreted correctly
