Hello All,
I have a Netgear (G) 108 Mbps Wireless Router (2.4 GHz 802.11 with
Atheros
Super G Technology), and I want to put a pci card in my S900 (OS
9.2.2) so
they can communicate. The box says this router will work with PC
OS and
"other operating systems running a TCP/IP network," but doesn't
specifically
mention MAC.
What is the deal on the wireless pci cards? Is it that some are
made for PC
and won't work in MACs? Or all of them need drivers and some of
the drivers
are only available for PC's? Or, can I stick a wireless PCI card
in my S900
and it will be plug and play and will show up as a choice on my TCP/IP
"connect via..." option on that control panel once the card is
installed?
Hi Bob--

More than you ever wanted to know about what cards work with what
system. Likely the Atheros chipset will need a driver. Fortunately
the listed drivers are nearly universal.
