Powerbooks
Apple claims that Airport 1.2 requires Mac OS 9, and an Airport equipped powerbook or a Powerbook G3 Series (Wallstreet). Airport won't install under Mac OS 8.6, however, I have been using it on three powerbooks (a Wallstreet and two 3400c's) for about a month with no noticeable issues except those which occur under Mac OS 9 as well. A friend has reported success with his powerbook 2400c. I have had no success, however, with a powerbook 5300cs and this software.
The hardware I am using includes the Lucent Wavelan Bronze and Silver cards.

Rob In The Hood Mac Os X
On the 2400c, it has been found that the Farallon ethernetPC card and the Lucent Wavelan card do not work simultaneously. You mustreboot to switch between the two. Similarly, I found that the 5300c had thesame problem using Lucent's drivers and Global Village's Platinum Pro ethernetcard. I have discovered that the Focus MV16-EN does work on the powerbook5300c with the Lucent Wavelan card using Lucent's drivers and Mac OS 7.6.This ethernet/video adapter was available for less than $30 at DMS last I checked.
