Hi Diane,
Wireless is just as good as wired these days. You can go 802.11b at up
to 10MBs, or the more current 802.11g at 54MBs. I have an iBook G4 1GHz
talking to an 802.11b access point, and the web pages load super fast!
Download speeds are equally speedy. 802.11g is newer, and faster,

That's a good point! An 802.11b wireless access point, or bridge
(depending on how you're using it) is just the same as a 10MB
network port.
That's not true. Firstly, 802.11b is rated at up to 11 Mbps, not
10 Mbps like 10base-T ethernet. However, 802.11b has tons of
overhead (as does 11g),

I have a card(802.11b) from Lucent that Airport seems to have no

We use the snow Airport base station (not extreme). It was fairly easy
to set up (followed directions for most secure - for wireless -

Works nicely with our Qwest DSL.
