[Wirelessdriver-support] Help: older Mac Powerbook G4 400MHz and D-Link DWL-G650 air card?

[Douglas B. <dbo...@co...>]

I need help.  I'm a Mac and wireless newbie.  I've got an older =
PowerBook G4 400MHz with 128MB RAM running the latest OS 10.x (always =
keep it upto date).  I bought the D-Link DL-624 router and D-Link =
DWL-G650 Air Plus Xtreme G 2.4GHz air card from www.buy.com and as luck =
would have it the DWL-G650 air card isn't working in my powerbook.  I =
can't figure it out.  The Powerbook sees the card.  When I installed the =
sourceforge.net drivers (also tried the IOExpert drivers) both drivers =
claim there is no signal.  My first question is how do I know if my =
PowerBook G4 airport card slot is 32-bit?  My second question is can =
anyone try to advise me on how I can at least get my Aircard to see a =
signal from the router?  The card is 6 inches from the router antena.  =
Note the air card has one light that blinks on and off about every 10 =
seconds.  I would have assumed if there was a signal it would be solid =
intead of blink. I've tried talking to D-Link but they refuse to help =
me.  I've also tried switching channels on the router.  I know channel 6 =
is the 108mbps channel.  So I've tried 10, 11, and 12, and none seem to =
help my air card detect a signal.  Bummer.  Please help me.
Sincerely,
Douglas
