Stephen, the dongle does need USB 2, according to the tech description of it, but like you I added a PCI card that provides it.
By the way, here's the URL to this gadget; I notice that the one I provided above was wrong: <http://tinyurl.com/66egqs> Anyway, Kris led me to the solution, (thanks Kris!) and now the wireless dongle is working and the Mac is connected to the internet through it. Kris, when you said "Can you launch Installer independently of the package by double- clicking the Installer.app icon in the Utilities folder?" I went to the Utilities folder to try that, but I could not find the Installer app. anywhere. It just wasn't in there. So, I went back to my wife's G4 MDD and looked in her utilities folder, and she had an Installer there. So, I copied the Installer from her Utilities folder onto a flash drive, carried the flash drive over to the other G4--the Quicksilver--and copied the Installer into the Quicksilver's Utilities folder. Then the software installer .pkg on the NewerTech CD opened up and installed just fine, and the dongle came to life and the Quicksilver had a connection to the Internet. Success! My only question is (not that it really matters now): just how did the Installer in the Quicksilver's Utilities folder get lost? Where did it go, and how come it wasn't there? Both these Macs are running 10.4 (hers is 10.4.9 and the Quicksilver is 10.4.11). I've never messed with anything inside the Utilities folder, so how could it just vanish like that? Oh well, all's well that ends well I guess, and thanks for the help!
