It works well. I had it plugged into a stock USB port on a G3B&W running OS 10.3.5. I did have to go to Belkin's web site to download a driver. (The ones on the included CD are Windows only - there isn't even any mention of Macs on the box)
It found our wireless network with no problems along with four others in our immediate neighborhood. One of our neighbors has all the security/encryption turned off on their wireless network. I was able to connect to it too, with no problems, although the signal was weak.
Although I can not find any specific comments at the moment, I understand these USB wireless devices don't work as well on USB PCI cards added to older Macs. YMMV

Here's a simple question.
To go wireless, do I need an Airport (not Extreme) card for my G4/450 Sawtooth
or can I get by with a non Apple brand (Belkin, Netgear) etc.?
