Re: want wireless for my Lombard
I'm looking at getting a card from Macsense for my walstreet. They have 802.11b and g cards now. Both are OS 9 and X compatible. Though, I haven't read any reviews yet. http://www.macsense.com/product/broadband/wireless.html __ Do you Yahoo!? New Yahoo!

want wireless for my Lombard
I've had a Lombard 400 MHz, 192MB/6GB for a few months. OS 9.2.2, which I want to maintain for a while, or else I'd have to expand RAM and hard disk space. And go without the DVD capability. I want to use this machine to surf and do email in coffeeshops. HOw come I'm having trouble identifying and locating a PC card that would allow it? Can the cards in the Sunday newspaper ads be used in Macs? Lynksis, NetGear, Microsoft, DLink, etc. They seldom say either yes or no, but the boxes usually list requirements for Wintel boxes alone. Are drivers out there? (Or out here, or whatever I mean.) I love coffeeshops, I love computers -- I can't wait! shaun -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I love coffeeshops, I love computers -- I can't wait! shaun I've not had a lot of good experience with them. OTOH, you could buy just about any PC Card and use the IOXperts 3rd party drivers with it. That would work well. There's another set of 3rd party drivers out there, too. Alternatively, you can use the ORiNOCO card with the Lucent/Avaya/Proxim drivers, a former Farallon SkyLINE card, or a MacWireless card. Or, you could get a WaveLAN/ORiNOCO Gold/Silver/Bronze card and use the Apple AirPort drivers. I do that on my two Wallstreets, and I did it on my Pismo until I bought a genuine AirPort card. It works great. FYI, this is a 100% supported setup - Apple's AirPort software _does_ support PC Cards (but only ones based on the WaveLAN chipset - no Prism cards like the ones made by D-Link, Linksys, etc). HTH.

Works OK on my Lombard and previously on a wallstreet. I can't say how good the range is as I don't have anything else to compare it to.
