Had to do a clean install when I installed Panther on my
Lombard p'book with Lucent 802.11b card, and so I lost my
previously flawless Jaguar wireless performance with the b5
version of this software.

Happy to discover that the driver *still works* in 10.3
Panther. The installer had to be run twice, (just like in
Jaguar) with shutdowns in-between to get the card to
power on and have the new network interface recognized.
Works fine in combination with my wireless Netgear
802.11b router via DHCP.

Rock on!

    Maybe you could elaborate a little? I'm having trouble
    getting 10.3.2 Panther to work with this driver. A nice step
    by step would be great ;)

    I'm still having trouble getting it to work? Works flawlessly with
    the IOExperts driver, but I have no intention of paying to get
    802.11b working on my PB. What was the big intention when Apple
    decided to make 802.11b NOT work on 10.3? All they've done is
    made me intensely annoyed at them. The PB is sure to be my first
    and last Apple product.

    I've gotten it to work on my PB G4/Lucent Silver.
    Instructions are as follows:

    (1) Install driver.
    (2) Install driver.
    (3) Install driver.
    (4) Install driver.
    (5) Repeat until some custom installation screen comes up
    where there SHOULD be an option to INSTALL the wireless
    driver. Weird that it decided not to install during the last
    10 or so installations, but anyway... make sure "Install
    Wireless Driver" is ticked and continue installation.
    (6) Reboot.

    Everything should be fine and dandy.

    Hey....thanks for this post. I wanted to upgrade my Lombard to at least
    Panther....and was reluctant to do so as I didn't want to lose the wireless
    support. Your post has given me the confidence to install Panther! Thanks!
    (I would install Tiger, but it appears Tiger isn't supported yet.) Rock on! to the
    developers of this source!
