just wanted to post a quick success story on adding wireless to my Sawtooth.
based on advice from this thread http://groups.google.com/group/g3-5-list/browse_thread/thread/19e74c46d9466fb3 i bought a mini-pci to pci adapter on ebay for about $6 including shipping. in my parts bin i had a mini-pci broadcom wireless card that i had salvaged from an old dell laptop. the mini-pci to pci adapter card came today. i installed the mini-pci broadcom card into it, attached the antenna cable (part of the PCI card assembly), inserted the PCI card in an open slot, and booted it up. the network control panel opened, said a new device had been detected, clicked OK, and the familiar wireless icon appeared in the menu bar. i clicked on the wireless icon, selected my home network, entered the password, and it connected and acquired an IP address just like it was supposed to! thanks to the posters in the above-referenced thread for the idea! that broadcom card from the old dell laptop was just gathering dust in my parts bin! ken -- 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.
