- airport card The range is extremely limited. My other airport cards work anywhere in the house. this one must be in the next room from the base or close or it loses the signal. Rating: - Mac Airport cardA literal snap to install in an iBook, quick and easy to set up, it worked the first try - - with a little help from Pogue's "OSX - The Missing Manual". Rating: - Fabulous ProductThe Apple Airport Card - network adapter - Airport 802.11b was a fabulous purchase. It did exactly what it was supposed to, was easy to install and test, worked immediately. The vendor that supplied the airport card was prompt, efficient, courteous, and careful in the packaging. Very happy with the product. Rating: - Excellent price, excellent productIt is so difficult to find plain old Airport cards these days! I was so happy to find this one at a good price. I am now wireless on my old G3 iBook and couldn't be happier. Rating: - Not your only option...This card is great for the seamless apple look and feel (and only option for internal in imac/ibook/PB) but it is way overpriced now that it is out of production. There are other options. Belkin F5D6050 USB B adapter has drivers for 9.2 and OSX, several manufacturers (e.g. certain Belkin, Linksys, Microsoft) PCI cards have airport extreme chipsets (broadcom) on them that OSX reads as a real airport Xtreme card. You need to do your research and some cards have different chipsets in different revisions, but it is pretty easy overall - and you can save $100!
