Which Airport Card for a Power MAC G4 w/400mhz?

Hello Everyone!
Sorry to be a bother but I'm new to the forum & need some help. I'm currently upgrading my Power Mac G4 w/400 mhz & I'm looking to go wireless. I've been looking for the best product to do this but I've become a bit confused. Did Apple make an airport card for my particular model? When I go into the specs, it shows that the system is airport compatible but I do not know which component to use. Can anyone help me out with this one?
Thanks,
Rick

Did Apple make an airport card for my particular model?
That computer takes the original AirPort card or a PCI card or external component which provides wireless access. The AirPort Extreme card is incompatible with it.

how easy are these things to install?
No so much easy, or hard, just delicate.
These instructions are originally in German, but with translation, you should be able to install it:

Airport card for a Power Mac G5 (PowerMac7,2)

I know this has been asked about other Power Mac G5's, but I haven't seen an answer for my particular model. Is there an Airport card that can be installed in my dual processor Power Mac G5, Model: PowerMac7,2, Processor Name: PowerPC 970 (2.2)? If so, which Airport / Airport Extreme cards, and is this something a noob like me could do myself? Thanks so much for your answers.

Hi pcr67, and a warm welcome to the forums!
While you wait for an answer on the Airport card, I can tell you that one of these would likely be cheaper/easier/better...

I can not seem to configure my AirPort Card on my power mac G4 MDD desktop

I'm trying to configure my new airport card on my old power mac g4 MDD desktop. The image is not supported by AirPort Extreme.
Please advise… thank you in advance. Jose

What's the problem with configuration? In the top right hand corner of your desktop you will see the AirPort symbol. Can you see any WiFi networks there?
Or do you mean a new AirPort Extreme router? In that case you will need either:
1. A newer Mac
2. OS X Leopard
10.4.11 does not support the latest generation of Extremes.

Which Airport card do I need for an iMac G4 Flat Screen 15"?

Hi, I have an iMac G4 (flat screen, with silver arm and round base), 15".
I'd be extremely grateful if someone could let me know which Airport card I need for this Mac and also whether or not I also require an adaptor. I have looked this up on the Apple site and also in 'The Flatscreen iMac for Dummies' book (I'm a complete technophobe, I'm afraid!), but am none the wiser.
If possible, model numbers for the Airport card and adaptor that I do need would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Jeremy

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and click on More Info, or if you're running Mac OS 9, choose Apple System Profiler from the Apple menu. Check the speed of the computer's CPU; if it is below 1GHz, you need the regular AirPort card, with the AirPort Extreme card being used on newer iMacs. No iMac G4 requires an adaptor to use an AirPort card.

How to know which airport card?

Hi, I have an iBook G4 with the small display; an acquiantance has the same laptop and she can use the wireless internet at our house no problem. Now I know I don't need a base station to be able to log into wireless but I don't know which airport card I should get; express, extreme etc ... any clues?
thanks

Rubens, Welcome to the discussion area!
That's easy! Every iBook G4 (without built-in wireless) uses the AirPort Extreme card.

Where can I purchase a runway card for a power mac G5 A1177 ?

I am searching for a runway card for a power mac G5 A1177 thats cheap.

"Where" questions are more easlily answered if you tell us your approximate geographic loation. That way you won't get links to vendors who cannot ship to your location.
That said, here is a US vendor:
http://www.dvwarehouse.com/Apple-Runway-Card-for-Power-Mac-G5-(Late-2005)---922- 7152-----NEW-p-35315.html
"Chea" is relative. Google "runway card" and you'll get a lot of hits for price comparision.

Which Airport card can I install in my iBook?

Hi.
I have a 12in iBook early 2004 model (1.07 GHz). Now I want to buy and install an Airport card. Can I use an Airport Extreme card on this computer or do I need to get an earlier version of the Airport card? The web site says: 'The AirPort Extreme Card can be installed only in computers that are AirPort Extreme ready. AirPort Extreme Cards cannot be used in AirPort-ready computers with an AirPort Card slot'.
Basically, which airport card is compatible with my iBook? I have not found any info on this web site.
Thanks,
Oskar

All iBook G4's (except of course those that come with the wireless interface factory-installed) use the Apple Airport Extreme card.

Upgrading graphics card in Gigabit Power Mac G4, which should I choose?

Hey guys and gals.
I've been looking to upgrade my Power Mac G4 dual 500 Gigabit ethernet. I'm kind of on a budget so I'm really just looking for something that will help out basic performance, I don't do any gaming. Right now I have the stock ATI Rage 128 Pro with 16mb vram, and it's not cutting it, it's really holding my G4 back. I've been looking at the ATI radeon 7000 with 64mb vram (AGP not PCI), and the Nvidia Geforce2 MX with 32mb vram which is also AGP. I've heard some bad things about the 7000 and that it's a weak card, but it does have more vram, and i'm not looking to play any games or do anything graphics intensive. I usually just surf the internet, listen to music, ichat, and all that jazz. If anyone out there has any experience with either of these cards, knows anything about them, or has any suggestions at all I would appreciate it. Thanks guys.

Airport Extreme Card for a Power Mac G5

Hi!
I have a power Mac G5 (1.8 GHZ 512 MB 160 GB) Serial Number XB40**QES. I want to buy an airport extreme card and found here on apple.com that the airport card I need is the M8881LL/A. But everyones at every store I´ve been keep telling me that a I need a special card for it, because the regular card just won´t fit the slot. Is this true?
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
<Edited by Moderator>

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
I need a special card for it, because the regular card just won´t fit the slot. Is this true?
No.
The "special" airport extreme/bluetooth card is only for dual core Late 2005 G5's. Your 1.8ghz G5 can use the Airport Exteme Card M8881LL/A.

Which airport card do i need for a imac g3 with mac os x 10.1?

I have a imac g3 with mac os x 10.1.What airport card will i need?

Hello puckey12345. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
I have a imac g3 with mac os x 10.1.What airport card will i need?
The iMac G3s with a clock speed of 400 MHz or faster, has an internal slot for the original AirPort card. The AirPort card adapter is also required to use the card in an iMac G3. The AirPort Extreme card is NOT compatible.
(ref: Apple Support - Specifications)

Help! How can I tell which Airport Card I have installed in my Mac Pro?

I bought a mac pro from comp usa in December, without the airport extreme option. I later got an airport card from apple on-line and took it to my Apple store to have it installed. I just don't know if it's the newer 802.11n card or an old 802.11g?
Any way to tell this in system profiler it just says:
Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0x87)
Wireless Card Locale: USA
Wireless Card Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (4.80.79.1)
Thanks a lot!

There is only one model of AirPort card for the Mac pro ( it is draft 802.11n compatible ). Some other intel Mac's may or may not have had the 802.11n enabler update applied. The enabler is/was a $1.99 download from Apple, so priced as the FTC deemed that it "added" features rather than revised existing firmware.

Which airport card is in the PB G4 Power PC?

I hava a PowerBook G4 laptop (1.67, Power PC chip) non-intel, running 10.5.8. When I run profiler it reports an Airport Card
but does not tell me if it is "G" or "N" capable. How can I find out?
If it is only "G" capable then I won't bother upping my Airport Express bridge to the new "N" version.

All G4 PowerBooks, that have 1.67GHz processors, came with the AirPort Extreme card. This card is capable of supporting either 802.11b or 802.11g wireless networks. It does not support 802.11n networks and cannot be firmware upgradeable to do so.
If you are looking to get 802.11n capability, you will need to use another solution, like a wireless USB adapter. One such adapter can be seen at Other World Computing (OWC).
