Is the powermac g4 (model number m8359) compatible with the airport extreme card

It was released in 2001 and I wasn't sure if I could successfully install the airport extreme card into the computer.

Nope, sorry...

  • Help.  Is the Airport Extreme Card compatible with my iMac?

    Probably stupidly simple, but I'm not sure of the answer. I've tried to get the answer online, but no luck. Can someone tell me if the airport extreme card will work with my iMac?
    TIA,

    Yes the AirPort Extreme card is the correct card for your iMac.

  • Which slot for the airport extreme card?

    I just picked up an airport extreme card for my mac pro. I located the slot in the mac pro, but there are two on top of each other.
    Question: which slot do I have to use: the upper or lower one?

    Thanks for the answer, however inserting the card was
    not the difficult thing. Finding the correct wire for
    the antenna was the difficult thing. A apple
    certified technician helped me with that issue.

    I want to buy the mac Pro and install the airport extreme card - what is the model number of the new card (apple tech tell me it is different from the old G4 card of the same name) and which is the correct wire to attach it to?
    BTW I know my way around the G4 desktop having upgraded &/or replaced everything screwed down in those
    this knowledge will speed up the purchase process-thanks

    i have an imac g4 purchased Dec 2003 runnung OS 10.5.8.  It runs fine with airport off, but when I turn airport on it freezes with the black page,  "restart by holding power key . . ."  I swapped the airport extreme card with the one in my ibook G4 (purchased same date and running same OS).  No change in operation.
    I am running wifi from verizon.  Recently changed from mifi2200 to jetpak 4620 in a 3G location.  Ibook running fine, desktop freezes.  If I can boot desktop in safe mode and get airport turned off in time. then I can reboot regularly and imac runs flawlessly with no wireless.Have run disk utilities and TechTool Pro rebuild etc, but nothing has worked.  How do I fine the culprit?

    the power logix thing was really sad. apple changed so much after 10.4.8 that there wasn't a viable way to patch the software.
    That statement is precisely why I don't believe in blindly updating the OS, especially in a non-standard machine.
    We can't expect third parties to support us forever, and it is shameful to break something that works fine, except that we updated the OS....
    I think that any upgrade or modification to a machine or the OS greatly increases the risk of trouble or incompatibility with current configuration and "new" system files.
    After all, the component or software could only be tested as far as the current OS version when the component or software was released.
    Beyond that, we are all "beta testing".
    Following a beta tester protocol, and applying updates to a cloned system drive first, is a prudent way to approach updates, and not only for older, heavily modified machines.
    After 10.4.8 and moreso with Leopard, the focus is primarily on Intel architecture, not PPC architecture.
    Like it or not, we are all updating to the abyss of the extinction of our machines, unless we can be satisfied with the last stable version of OS that works well with our hardware and software.
    I wish they would include the latest pkgs at least with software update.
    Yes, having individual packages, rather than lump "OS X 10.x.x" updates would be nice.
    This way, one could update as one sees fit. That is to say, for example, fix the Quicktime, but leave my Network alone, etc., etc.
    In all fairness, Apple does provide for some breakdown of updates, but I believe there is much room for improvement, especially, as you point out, with regard to the core services portion of the OS.
    Until then, I'll leave Software Update disabled.......

  • Is the airport extreme card incompatible with my powermac G5 dual 2 GHz?

    I have installed an airport extreme card into my powermac G5 dual 2 GHz. It will only detect my router if it's in the same room and even then it has a very weak signal. Any suggestions?

    You need both for it to work, but don't you have the card already?

  • How do I remove the orange ribbon connector from the airport extreme card.

    It's the last thing keeping me from intalling the new card. Does anyone know how to remove it. And why does the new one have a plastic tab sticking out next to the antenna port?

    the card inside PB G4 17" is physically different card than the retail card.
    retail card has plastic tab to pull it out of the slot of compatible models:

  • How do I install the Airport Extreme card??

    Apologies if I am just being dense. In the shop they told me to do this myself at home and follow the instructions. There were no installation instructions in the box. I eventually found something on a website (not here) for 2001 iBook models (mine is 2004). Was doing fine until the card was supposed to click smoothly into the plug thingy. It doesn't. I don't want to force it in case I damage something.
    I asked them in the shop to check that this computer does take the Extreme card rather than the old one, and they said it did. Can anyone help??

    lemontree, Welcome to the discussion area!
    If you have the 12" iBook G4, the instructions can be found in KB 26277, iBook G4: CIP Instructions.
    If you have a different iBook, visit www.apple.com/support/diy/ and choose your iBook from the drop down menu.

  • Mac Pro - can I install the Airport Extreme card myself

    Or do I need to have the store do it? I have a Mac Pro 2.66 tower and want to get wireless internet.
    Thank you!

    The Mac Pro wireless card is an item that is installed by an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP).

  • Airport Extreme Card - USA version not compatible with Europe?

    I'm having some problems with the Airport Extreme Card in my Mac Mini i.e. my connection to the internet is mind numbingly slow when using it. I have no issues when I hook it up directly with a LAN cable and I've used a friends Macbook to connect to the wireless router and their connection works perfectly.
    My specs...
    AirPort Card Information:
    Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x86)
    Wireless Card Locale: USA
    Wireless Card Firmware Version: 1.4.3.1
    Current Wireless Network: SpeedTouch3C84E7
    Wireless Channel: 11
    Now here's where I think the problem lies, I bought this machine in the US but am now living in Belgium...you'll note that the card locale is set to USA. My friends machine has a card locale of worldwide and I think this difference is causing the issue. I found another thread that mentions using a USA card in europe limits the number of available channels but I'm still in the dark as to what to do about it.
    Is the locale changeable via a software setting or is the hardware different...maybe there's a firmware change I could make?
    If it's hardware is this something my Apple store can switch for me?
    If I'm really stuck can I switch my router to the US settings to fix the issue?
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks for the help!
    Chris

    hi. I think that the only difference between USA and worldwide cards is that ww cards have additional channels (12 and 13). You should be able to use your mini in Europe.

  • 2Wire and the Latest Airport Extreme Cards

    After searching the MacBook and Airport forums, I know a lot of folks out there are experiencing this. I purchased 3 MacBooks, two new White 2.0 GHz C2D and one refurbished 1.83 GHz. I can't get the new ones to log onto the 2Wire network. The refurb has no problems. A 17" PowerBook has no problems.
    The software for the refurb and one of the 2 GHz MacBooks are all up to date. Those two were set up in another location and were logged into another home network. I'm getting suspicious about the firmware loaded into the MacBook's AP cards.
    The 2.0 GHz MacBook Airport Extreme firmware version is 1.0.27p3. I don't know what the 1.83 GHz firmware version is because that one is far away with its recepient (I'll have to call him and find out). My PowerBook and G5 Airport Extreme cards both use the same version: 405.1 (3.90.34.0.p18).
    Does anyone out there know if there are any differences between the Airport firmware loaded in an older MacBook (MA254LL/A or FA254LL/A) and the current ones (MA700LL/A)? If there is, it looks like the the current models are incompatible with 2WIRE wireless networks. Apple, what did you folks tweak between the original MacBooks and the current (late 2006) ones and can we please get an Airport firmware update that either regresses back to that or fixes this issue?

    Opus_Maru, Welcome to the discussion area!
    There is no way for the user to directly affect the version of firmware being used by the AirPort Extreme card or the built in 802.11g wireless capability. The firmware is updated silently and without any notice when an AirPort Software update is applied to the Mac.

  • Is Duel Ethernet Airport Base compatible with Airport Extreme Card?

    magicnme, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Question - will the new Pro with the Airport Extreme card be compatible with the old base station?
    Yes, the MacBook Pro can connect to a 802.11b base station like the Dual Ethernet (aka snow) AirPort base station (ABS).
    If it will, what would be the advantages of upgrading to a new Extreme Basestation?
    The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) offers a USB printer port for wireless printing.
    The AEBS offers WPA and WPA2 wireless encryption.
    Also if you have other computers on your local network, large file transfers between your computers will be faster.

  • What printers are compatible with the airport extreme?

    What printers are compatible with the airport extreme?

    Virtually any wireless printer will work just fine as well as a printer that connects using Ethernet. If you are looking at an All-in-One type of device....all functions like print, scan, copy, maintenance, etc will be supported.
    If you are looking at USB devices, Apple does not provide a list of compatible models, so It is difficult to say with certainly what will work and what will not. In general, most USB printers will work.
    But....very important....if you are looking at an All-in-One USB device, you need to keep in mind that only the print function will work when the device is connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme. Scan, copy, fax, maintenance, etc. will not be supported.
    Bottom line...if you are looking at an All-in-One device and you need all of the functions, you need to choose a device that connects using wireless only or Ethernet, not USB.
