I refer to the version 4.1 that came up in Software Update. I downloaded and installed it on my Pismo even though I have an original Graphite base station. I didn't try to update my base station firmware as it was already at the latest level (3.84, which is ancient but is the most recent level for the Graphite's). I usually install all the software updates--and this one in particular--since (a) new h/w has a habit of showing up in my house, and (b) I carry my PowerBook around and occasionally connect with other AirPort/WiFi networks. -Jeff[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You can't brew a premium lager with a Kool-aid mentality. --Harold Green in _The_Red_Green_Show_ -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

All well and good, Your way seems to have worked for you so far so congratulations. However, I wonder about Apple's shotgun approach in Software Update. There have been updates where the description specifically said to NOT install it if you don't meet the requirements. If SU checks for what is on your computer, then it should know that you don't have an iSight or iPod because those show up in the System Profiler. I have a 2nd Gen iPod, yet SU still tells me to dl install updates that specifically say that they are for the iPod Mini and Click-Wheel iPods. Of course you can tell SU to ignore the update but, as I understand it, that means that it will ignore ALL future updates for that item. -- Sincerely, Dennis B.
