If on 10.3 or 10.4, there are three USB 2.0 802.11b/g chip sets which have full manufacturer support for MacOS X: ZyDas (now part of Atheros), Ralink and Realtek. All are backward compatible to USB 1.1, which is what the Pismo is. The AirLink101 AWLL-3026 is ZyDas-based, and has been discontinued, but this same chip set is also used by Macsense, ZyXel and several others in currently available products. The AirLink101 AWLL-3028 is Realtek-based. You probably won't find MacOS X drivers even mentioned in any of the literature, but the manufacturer's web site has the drivers. For the ZyDas products the current driver is 4.5.70. A separate driver installer is available for 10.3 and 10.4, and the 10.4 driver implicitly supports 10.5. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
