Is there a wireless card that will work in the 3400 without installing a new

I've heard you can do that but which version of the Airport Software did you
use? I've downloaded 2.0.2 and 2.0.4 and TomeViewer but hadn't tried it yet.
I think the 2.0.4 version says you have to have Mac OS 9.2.2 install

I never could get the Orinoco driver to work. I have an Airport base
station; so it was just easier.

The Orinoco/Lucent driver ought to work. I just never could get it to work.

The dividing line between those PBs which can use Apple's AirPort
software and those which cannot falls along the nubus-to-pci-platform

Drew, can you see any possibility at all to hack AP for nubus PBs?

Maybe. I think i've determined that AirPort looks at the pccd
system gestalt to decide if it wants to work or not. I'm still
trying to hack the vanilla AirPort 1.3 installer to install on a
3400c. I got far enough that
My recommendation:
ORiNOCO Silver (or Gold) card.
AirPort 1.3 drivers.
That combination will work on Mac OS 8.6 or higher, provided you've
got a 2400c or 3400c (or newer).
AirPort 1.3 won't install on the 2400, 3400, or Kanga. You have to
use TomeViewer to install it manually.
