Where does one get the vendor supplied driver?
Are you suggesting picking up an internal Airport card and sticking it into the PC Card slot? Do the Airport cards working in both 9 and x work in X 10.1.5?

I know that Belkin cards work. I don't now recall the model number but I'm certain ver.001 of the card works, and works well. I have a list somewhere of what works and what does not. If you need it, send me an E-mail. I currently have one of those Belkins on my Pismo. Airport b cards work for both 9 and X. Airport g cards probably work for X, only. Third-party b cards work with 9 with the vendor-supplied driver. A fourth-party driver is required for b with X. That driver costs more than the card itself, and is locked to the card's MAC address, so should the card fail, the driver is toast, too. Third-party g cards work with X with the vendor-supplied driver. The fourth-party driver may work, too, but my experience with that driver has been decidedly negative with whatever card was purported to be supported (I tried several, in trial mode). Belkin Ver. 2000 cards are Broadcom and work with X as an Airport Extreme card. No vendor driver is required. They do take the Cardbus slot, however, and not the Pismo's internal Airport card slot. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's G-Books list, a group for those using G3 iBooks and PowerBooks (we run a separate list for G4 'Books).
