I don't know how well the adapters work but the software is rather primitive, at least the three or four I've dealt with. None of them provided a menu bar ICON allowing selection of the WiFi network as Airport does. They tend to be cluncky and un-Mac like and are also slow. I have a client who is using one because of a faulty Airport antenna. I have a couple for use with a dish reflector to make a high-gain directional WiFi rig for boosting the range. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
