realfolkblues Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Hi both my wireless G cards that I own don't work with osx. And according to the fourm i have no chance in hell of getting them working eather. So i was woundering if you guys could tell me what the cheapest card to get is that will work, with WEP. and is eather usb or pci. Thanks a bunch! and links to them on pricegrabber or something simaler would be nice if you are so inclined. Ps does not need to be working out of the box, i'm smart enough to do patching, but i need there to be a known fix, and none of those cards where v1 will work but not v2 ect please, sense i have no way of knowing what's in the box Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/37815-wireless-g-card-cheep-please/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

That card seems to have alot of problems? maybe someone can think of one that is not saying it's going to die in a month?

wow Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 using wep as protection is as using no protection at all. Use at least wpa with a long password Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/37815-wireless-g-card-cheep-please/#findComment-269570 Share on other sites More sharing options...
realfolkblues Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share Posted January 6, 2007 haha good point wow. But i live in an old peoples naberhood. I'm the only one in my 20's. I doubt any of them would know how to bypass it.
