Thanks, this does get me started in the right direction. I tried to
do "apt-cache search b43 bcm43" and nothing came up. I don't know how

Hallo!
I think the Airport (not Airport Extreme) can only handle WEP
encryption, not WPA encryption. That's because the hardware of the
Airport (not Airport Extreme) only knows 802.11b, that means only WEP
