5300 WaveLAN silver

2002-04-30 Thread A. L. Kershaw
The Wavelan silver works like a charm. It won't work with the Apple Airport software, but the Lucent/Orinoco/Agere supplied drivers for PowerPC 16bit/NuBus machines work just fine. Pretty easy to set up. Just tell the TCP/IP control panel to use the Ethernet Slot 1 card (or whatever it's

No doubt. That's because the 3400 has 32bit capable PC card slots and a PCI architecture. The 5300 (which we are talking about - hence the subject header) does not. For the record, the AirPort card _is_ a rebranded WaveLAN Silver card (last time I checked anyway). Open up a base station and

Gary, yes, it is. So is the 2400 and Original G3. That is why it is so trivial to make them cardbus compliant (heck, some of them are CardBus ready out of the box). All PCI architecture macs have 32bit expansion slots (which is the PCI spec, by the way). Peace, Drew From: Gary D. Adams
