Hello All. I have some questions too. What is the last version of Airport Software that works under OS 9.1-9.2.2?
Can the Wallstreet support more that one type of wireless software at the same time? I am referring to perhaps the Skyline and a Airport software, or Airport and Orinoco software. Do you just change the stetting in the AppleTalk Control Panel and change cards? Are current production Airport Base Stations suitable for use on a network that only has Macs running OS 9.1 or earlier? Are their third party routers that have both ethernet connection, modem and which will pass AppleTalk packets? I have a friend who was advised to purchase a Orinoco Gold card (by CDW) for her Wallstreet. I have been able to get it working but the software is confusing for her. I advised her to try one of the Skyline cards, but she has already spent $100 on this card. I would like to install the Airport software and let her try it with out removing the Ornioco software. She has tried the Skyline software on my PB, and likes it's simple interface, but we are back to the money she has already spent. She has cable, uses a Belkin router, and can connect to the other computers on the wired ethernet side of router by just going to the Chooser/AppleShare and pick the name of the other machine. With her Wallstreet, she does the same thing, but has to put in the IP address of the computers on the wired side of the router to connect. No problem connecting to internet from any of her 4 computers. I have put a alias on the Wallstreet of each hard disk she wants to connect to, and this seems to solve the problem, but I was wondering if I configured the Belkin router wrong? This was the first time I ever configured one. My previous experience is putting wireless on old PowerBook computers for use at a Mac User Group hot spot. ( I helped a retired gentlemen set up a PB1400/117 & OS 7.6 to surf on my Skyline card I loaned him). Thank you. Ken Vann -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
