There is actually an AC board on it that can be replaced. It attaches to the
motherboard. Pretty easy fix but does require disassembly. These can be
found pretty cheap on eBay also.

You will indeed need XPostFacto to install 10.3 on a Wallstreet. Try to make
sure that this upgrade does support OS X or you could be disappointed.
I'm not sure how the iLife package will be on a G3 at 400MHz. Some of the
apps in the iLife package require a G4, more specifically Altivec.
I was looking at iLife05.

There is a way of using Ubuntu on an old-world machine. It can be
done with Ubuntu I know, but it's slightly tricky.
Right now I am using a Lucent Orinico Silver card with the OS 9.2
Airport drivers on this Wallstreet.
I _think_ the card on Ebay will work for you.

Well, for my part, the reason I suggested to get 66MHz chip was that
the
density was likely to be smaller with those older chips.
I have a US Robotics router and a gulp Microsoft wireless card that I
use for WS II. I had to pay a little more for the 3rd party driver to
work the MS card, but I was still $30 cheaper than an airport that
won't work in my system anyway. The router has a 108Mb capability and
was only $40
Its a density problem. The WS will read 128MB PC133 as long as the
density matches, you need 6 layer memory for it to work right. I
think... thats how it works with older PC's...
