Re: airport alternatives for Wallstreet?

2002-11-20 Thread Mike Amato

 From: Kent Wieland [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Has anyone had success using any of the Airport-alternatives, such as
 D-link, etc...?  I'm interested in setting up a wireless network for my Imac
 and Wallstreet from my cable modem.  Ideally, I'd like to get a combination
 access-point and router to connect the Imac directly via ethernet and the
 Wallstreet by PC Card.
 Could anyone recommend brands/models for both the access-point/router and PC
 card?  BTW, I'm using OS 9.1 in both computers.
 Kent (digest mode)

Kent, I am using a Linksys Wireless router. I have a Lombard with a
MacWireless pc card, an Ibook with an Airport card, an Imac with a
Macwireless.com usb wireless adapter and a hardwired Mac 6116 and Starmax.
Microcenter is having a sale on the Linksys so others probably do as well.
No problems so far. The Linksys router is about the onl Mac they support.
Don't get their car or anything else that requires drivers.

Hope this helps,

Check out Macwireless.com.==

MacWireless enables almost all Macintosh models to connect to a wireless
network, no matter how old or new these machines may be. If you have a
PowerBook 190, 5300, 2400; or if you have a desktop PCI system; or if you
have a machine with a USB port such as an iMac, now you also can have a
wireless network connection.

I am using their pc card in my lombard and the usb adapter with an Imac,
Both work flawlessly, have not had a problem.

See them at=== http://www.macwireless.com/index.html

Re: airport alternatives for Wallstreet?

2002-11-19 Thread Charlie Meyerson
I briefly owned a Wallstreet (used, had other problems and I traded it in);
used it with an Orinoco/Agere card and an AirPort; from all I've heard, you
should have no trouble using it with other Wi-Fi transmitters, too.

Good luck!

I don't think there's anything better than the Airport card for an Apple

The great tragedy being that Wallstreets don't accept Airport cards 
(how I wish they did) I've used an orinoco gold under 9.2 and it worked 
beautifully, haven't tried any cards under 10.2.2 yet, any 
recommendations there? (and do you absolutely have to use the 
wirelessdriver.sourceforge.net driver for all pc card solutions?)

 The Netgear is a great deal but the model number is MR314, I believe.

There is a MR814 as well as a MR314. They are functionally similar.
