I use a Buffalo WLICBG54 wireless G pc card in my Wallstreet; it uses
Airport Sw in OSX Jaguar; I do not boot into OS9 on that machine.
To *my* knowledge, there is no way to obtain wirelessG using either USB or
a PC card when booting into OS9. I know a bold statement, but I think I am
right on that...
On my Lombard, which can boot into OS9 and OSX, I use a Lucent WaveLAN Gold
802.11b card; Airport controlls it in OS9, and Orangewear does the job when
I boot into 10.3 Panther.
As far as the Pismo goes, since it has an internal airport card slot, you
could install an wifiB airport card for the OS9 boot to use, then use a WifiG
card in the cardbus slot, but I think it will have to be something other
than a broadcom card, because in OSX airport will still try to use the
internal Airport card.
