PowerBook 1400 WiFi
Using OS 8.04 w/Sonnet G3 400Mhz card. Recently tried two Orinoco Silver cards, but neither is recognized by the Orinoco software (though the card itself does appear as an icon on the desktop). In fact, no ethernet or alternate ethernet appears as an option in TCP/IP. This is strange, because I had previously connected the PB to my cable router with an ethernet cable (via the dongle on a 3Com combo modem/ethernet card). Any suggestions?

Re: PowerBook 1400 WiFi
You might try a newer Mac OS. The minimum requirements for the Orinoco software is 8.6 or greater. For older Mac OSs you should use the WaveLan drivers. -tom -- From: Eric Riedl Subject: PowerBook 1400 WiFi Using OS 8.04 w/Sonnet G3 400Mhz card.

That's because it's in the Appletalk control panel Good luck...check your wireless router for problems too. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

=== ORIGINAL MESSAGE = Using OS 8.04 w/Sonnet G3 400Mhz card.

With Mac OS 8.6, v7.x installed correctly on a 1400 with G3 upgrade, and on a 1400 133, but didn't install on a 1400 166. Same problems as you have. I found that v6.x installs correctly on that PB. Same thing happened on a friend's 1400 133, but we couldn't make v6.x work on that beast. We had to go down all the way to v3.x for that one. It really is like SCSI, you have to know voodoo and make sacrifices to the proper gods... ;-) Best regards.
