Why don't you skip the ABS and just buy an airport card for the G4? Then
you can hardwire the G4 to your internet connection, enable software
basestation, and share your internet connection with your powerbook
wirelessly. Your G4 acts as a basestation.

Note that this is possible under OS 9 and supposedly Jaguar, but not OS
X 10.1.
I'm assuming it will work under Jaguar and have bought a bunch of
Airport cards. I already have an ABS at home which shares my DSL
connection between my Pismo and my wife's dual USB iBook. At work I have
a G4
the set-up this way until I install 10.2 and see how Rendevous works. Kinda
like if it ain't broke don't fix it.

I also don't expect there to be any problem when I go to 10.2 because it
uses the same TCP/IP protocol as we are using now. In fact I believe it

You CAN get away without the airport card in the G4 but you still need an
ethernet hub. You would connect the G4 the ABS and the cable modem into the
hub, your laptop would be wireless.
I saw a hub for $40 at *GASP* Home Depot last night. I was shocked.
It's a 5-port and mounts on the wall, so

It's a 5-port and mounts on the wall, so you could put the ABS,
Cablemodem and hub right there.

A company called PowerMax has what they call last years' model Airport

would love one to use in my home for my Pismo and my G4 tower. Some of
you must still be using last years. I am running 10.1.5 on both if it
matters.
I am using 2 of the old base stations The only real difference is the
number of inputs and the lack of 128 encryption. They work fine.

The old base stations can be fully upgraded to Version 2.02, which among
other things, allows PPPoE (in layman's terms this means you can use it for
AOL), and it covers upgraded service as well..We run these older units
exclusively in our shop offices, and are very happy with them.

I'm sure someone else will know for sure if this is right, but I _think_
Rendezvous won't work with the old 'graphite' base stations.
I am very happy with the Airport I bought from David (
http://www.ibookparts.com ) and the upgrade was easy as well. It only cost
$149.99!!!

I cannot understand why that the older ones would not work with 10.2.
They should.

You might check Compusa. I was in the Arlington, TX store and they had a few
of the older models, new in box, for $149.99. I think they were the single
ethernet port models.

Well, technically, it's both. It has a wired LAN connection that could be
switched/hubbed out to support multiple hardwired machines.
