Customer Review: Mac G4 compatible 802.11g PCI card
Summary: 5 Stars
I was replacing a very old and slow DSL 802.11b wireless system with a cable wireless 802.11g system and needed to upgrade my two oldest desktop Macs(a 867-Mhz Quicksilver and a dual 1-Ghz MDD) that had been using Apple's original 802.11b Airport cards. This Sabrent PCI-G802 card was the least expensive b & g PCI card (under $20) that had any mention of Mac compatibility, so I figured it was worth a shot. The card does ship with a mini-CD that includes Ralink drivers for Mac, Windows, and Linux. However, there were no installation instructions for the Mac, so this might be an issue for people not comfortable in setting up a wireless network. I noted that a newer version of the Ralink driver (compatible with OS 10.3, 10.4, 10.5) was available on the Ralink website ([...]), which I downloaded and installed. Prior to software installation, the Airport card was removed and the PCI card installed. The Ralink wireless utility scanned for all the local wireless networks and it took just a couple of minutes to figure out the setup for my secured network. The cards have worked flawlessly on both G4s (10.4.11) during the month they've been in use. I was concerned about how they would perform when putting the G4's to sleep or bringing them out of sleep (this was a well-known problem with many USB 2.0 PCI cards for the Mac); however, there has to date not been any sleep-related problems despite multiple sleep periods each day. If you want an 802.11b,g card that is recognized by Apple's Airport software, you'll need to look elsewhere and pay a much higher price. Otherwise, this is a steal.
