How do I get wireless internet on PowerMac G5 Quad?

What should I buy? The regular Airport Express is not compatible.

I found this thread and now everything works just fine.

+1. Connect to network via Ethernet.+
+2. Go to Network in System Preferences.+
+3. Select AirPort and under the gear dropdown choose Make Service Inactive.+
+4. Hit the plus and add a new AirPort service (Airport 2 or whatever).+
+5. In the Advanced tab add the name of the wireless network you wish to join.+
+6. Hit Apply.+
+7. After a few moments, the new service found my network. I deleted the "original" Airport service and renamed the new one to Airport.+

  • How can I get Wireless N 5MHZ Capabilities Dual Band up to 300MHZ on my DV7 Laptop?

    How can I get Wireless N 5MHZ Capabilities Dual Band up to 300MHZ on my DV7 Laptop?
    Question for 4/18 experts ...
    Or specifically, how can I replace my wireless card on a DV7-6B32US and upgrade to Intel Centrino 6230?
    I have a relatively new DV7-6B32US puchased on 11/2011.  Still under warranty. purchased 2 of the laptops. (also own 3 hp desktops and 1 HP All in One)
    Existing card is wireless N but does not support 5GHZ or dual band.  It is Broadcom 4313 wifi card and I am just realizing that the Broadcom card does not do the dual band  5GHZ wireless N.   I have Linksys e4200 router which supports 5GHZ and dual band speeds up to 300 Mbps.
    I called tech support and with their help identified Intel Centrino 6230 as the correct upgrade, and with their help ordered 631956-001.  In the Maintenance Manual for DV7 laptop, this part number was listed for Intel Centrino 6230.  Turns out HP sends an Intel Wireless N 1030 card, which is no better than my existing card.   I called HP and they acknowledged that some manuals use part number 631956-001 for Centrino 6230 and some use 631956-001 for INtel 1030.  So HP support said they would give refund but case manager was of no help in solving the upgrade problem.  Said it was unavailable but here is your money back.
    So after more searching, I see others have used part number 636672-001 to order Intel Centrino 6230, specifically for HP ProBook 4530s, 4230s, 4730s.   And if I use part number 636672-001 and go thru parts store at HP, I can purchase it. 
    But will it work??
    First, will the Intel Centrino 6230 with part number 636672-001 from HP parts,  work in my HP DV7-6B32US, even though the part number is NOT listed in the Maintenance and Service Guide for my specific  laptop.  I see postings about whitelists and changing bios, etc, and am hoping someone can provide some guidance.   I have been thru 2 tech support calls and one case manager and have gotten 3 different feedback from HP, from yes it will work and ordering the part, to buy it on amazon, to it will not work and here is your money back.
    Second, I see some postings about Centrino 6230 and multiple antenna's.  When I replaced the Broadcom 4313 with the Intel 1030 card, I simply unattached 2 wires and reattached the wires.  And it worked.   I am wondering if the reason HP doesn't list the 6230 card for DV7 is that DV7 does not have the antennas required to support 6230.   Does the Centrino 6230 require 3 antennas?
    Thanks for any suggestions.  The existing cards do work but I paid extra for the Linksys e4200 Router and just assumed a winter 2011 $700 laptop from HP would use the latest wireless n technology, otherwise I would just keep existing cards. 

    I have went thru the exact same problems trying to upgrade the wireless card in my DV7.  It is very frustrating that the wireless card can't be upgrade to one that supports 5Ghz.  Here is my post from the network forum. http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Wireless-Internet-Home/Unsupported-Wireless-LAN-6230/td-p/1419595 Doesn't sound like it is possible to upgrade to the Centrino 6230 without it being added the the "white list".  Sound like HP doesn't update the list after shipping the notebook. I feel your pain. HP needs to help out the consumer in upgrading the wireless cards.  I see we are not the only ones that have had this problem. 

  • I have just bought a ibook g4  how do you get the internet

    how d you get the internet working from the airport , i have an airport extreme and the spec says airport how do i connect to the internet

    You can connect to the Internet via the Ethernet port or wirelessly. To connect either way you need to have internet service from an Internet Service Provider, or via Wi-Fi. To connect wirelessly at home you need a wireless router like an Airport Extreme base station.
    Please do post back with further questions or comments if any.
    HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

  • How can I get safe internet for protect my phone and PC

    How can I get safe internet for protect my phone and PC. l lose all internet account I've three year. i lose my phone all app for a day even I safe all informating and apps in ICloud  but I lose all my phone information . Like I have new phone and I do not have all my date . For new phone i can not use over 10 apps for my phone

    You can't. But if you backed up your computer prior to wiping it out, you should be able to restore your iTunes library, contacts, photos, etc. from that backup. Once you do, you can set the phone up again and just sync everything from your library back to it.
    If you didn't back the computer up either, you can transfer items purchased on the phone into iTunes, and if you set up at least one contact in whatever application you sync your contacts to on the computer, it will offer to merge the address books on the first sync, saving those.  Any media you'd acquired from sources other than the iTunes store will have to be re-downloaded from the source or re-ripped.
    The iPhone is NOT a backup device.

  • How do I get the internet traffic to come to my own server?

    If I'm moving from paying a host for coldfusion to using my own license on my own server, How do I get the internet traffic to come to my own server?

    You connect the computer to a network.  This is pretty much automatically handled by the hardware and the operating system.
    You may want to read up on some of the basics of networking and the tcp/ip world.
    To have a networked computer tell you its IP address type 'ipconfig' at a dos command line.

  • How do I get the internet connection back onto ipad even though it connects to Wifi successfully and I have checked on my iPhone which does connect via the same wifi and to the internet?

    How do I get the internet connection back onto ipad even though it connects to Wifi successfully and I have checked on my iPhone which does connect via the same wifi and to the internet?

    Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address shown starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make/model, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

    What do you mean it did not work!  What were the results of the diagnostic tests?
    Have you contacted your ISP to determine if the problem is on their end?  
    Have you changed your router channel?  Sometimes this resolves wireless problems.

    How do I get multiple internet screens going on Safari at the same time?

    Do you mean "New window" (command-n) or "New tab" (command-t)? Are you in "Full Screen Mode"? If so, hit the escape key to exit that mode before making a new window or tab.  Use Expose/Mission Control to manage windows.

  • How do you get wireless on your windows side of the computer

    Hey,
    I have a macbook and i use a air port express for my wireless internet on my mac side of my computer how do you get your wireless internet set up on the windows side of your computer. i can't figure out how put it on there at all so im guessing that there some thing wrong with boot camp. I'm 13 so make it simple

    Louser500:
    Welcome to Apple Forums.
    Did you install the boot camp drivers as soon as you installed Windows on your boot camp partition? If not then:
    1) Boot up in Windows
    2) Insert your Leopard Installation CD in the disk drive
    3) Windows should automatically begin installing the Boot Camp Windows drivers which includes the wireless connection.
    4) Once the process is completed then you should have access to the wireless connection (Ensure that you choose the right network to connect, the security type and password which will the same as your Mac OSx side).
