What's the experience been with standalone ethernet to WiFi adapters?
(beyond that they need external power) Can anyone recommend specific
units? b or g, OSX or 9
Looks like I need to go that route, and would like to get something
that works without too much pain... First shot at a Linksys

Never mind about makes/models as I live in Sweden and
we probably don't have all the different makes you have,
and I'd probably get a decent make in any case

As people have mentioned in our AirPort discussions, as well
as the seller of my new TiBook (my second to date), the
reception/transmission is not good, especially when one
actually uses the computer (doh!) and covers the case with
one's hands.
What is the best option for wireless ?
At least this
I would try and get your hands on one of the old
Lucent Orinoco cards. I have one (sold under the
Agere name) in my Kanga and the reception is even
better than my 12 AlBook's. I believe you can get
the same card on eBay under many names, including Dell
TrueMobile or Proxim, just be careful on
Or maybe a USB adapter, memory stick style thing... ?

Syntax USB-400 usb tab, just to try this out, and it works surprisingly

Then you might be able to answer this, why does the
manual say that I have an IrDA port while there's nothing
on the book, while my 550MHz TiBook did...

I use the Orinoco driver under Mac OS 8.6. I tried to install AirPort, but
the installer said that my machine (Kanga) was not supported. I did plug
the card into My wife's Lombard and it just works using OS 9's AirPort
software, but under OS X the Orinoco driver is required.

You can do it manually. I did. I use the Classic Gold card in OS 8.6
all the time
In 8.6 was actually easier to just install the Orinoco driver than to try
and get AirPort installed, for me at least.
Works like a champ either way, with far better reception than any other wifi
card, built in or PCMCIA that I've ever used, including two 12 PowerBook
