You can install an original Apple Airport card into it, I've seen them  
for $30-$50 on the swaplist. There are several USB wifi dongles that  
work, TrendNet just released one with new Mac drivers.

You must have a FW800 G4 MDD, the others only support original Airport
cards. So if you want greater range/ more bandwidth you have to go the USB
or PCI route.
