Re: Binatone card in lieu of Airport

[rgeaston]

the apple airport software should work in OS9, but it won't in OSX. try 
http://wirelessdriver.sourceforge.net unlike the IO experts driver you 
don't have to pay for it. you may have to load it and reboot a few 
times, but it should find the net and work fine

Because my Airport card connection seems faulty, I've been on the
lookout for a PC card substitute for my Pismo. Saw a card in a sale at
Maplin's for only £12 and bought it on the off chance that it might be
a badged card that would work in the Mac. It's a Binatone WL1000 and 
it
has a little green light that suggests that it is picking up the
Airport signal. But the connection isn't recognised. The software is
PC-only. Does anyone know of software that will make this card work?

Re: Binatone card in lieu of Airport

I can't be sure, but the WL part of the number suggests it's a rebaged
lucent wavelan. Silver and Gold should work fine but if it's bonze I
think you might have troubles.

Ideally you should be able to use your AirPort driver, that's what I'm
doing right now with a Lucent WaveLan Silver card.

Tony, you might check at I/O Experts:
http://www.ioexperts.com/

They often have drivers for using third-party products under MacOS X.

You have to recognize that every out-front maneuver you make is going to 
be lonely. But if you feel entirely comfortable, then you are not far 
enough ahead to do any good. That warm sense of everything going well is 
usually the body temperature at the center of the herd.

Binatone card in lieu of Airport

[Tony Coult]

Because my Airport card connection seems faulty, I've been on the 
lookout for a PC card substitute for my Pismo. Saw a card in a sale at 
Maplin's for only £12 and bought it on the off chance that it might be 
a badged card that would work in the Mac. It's a Binatone WL1000 and it 
has a little green light that suggests that it is picking up the 
Airport signal. But the connection isn't recognised. The software is 
PC-only. Does anyone know of software that will make this card work?
