I wouldn't necessarily give up just yet. Your eMac doesn't need to be wireless. It can be plugged into one of the ethernet ports on the router then the Squeezebox Radio could wirelessly connect to the network. So your connection would look like this phone jack>dsl modem/router>ethernet port on DSL modem>WAN port on linksys router/acess point. Then you plug the ethernet cable from your eMac into one of the ethernet ports on the linksys router. At that point you can establish a wireless connection from the Squeezebox Radio to the linksys router. This should be fairly straightforward to set up. Thanks!
