ou did get me thinking...
I might look into this unit, claims to Support driver for Windows 2000, XP 32/64, Vista 32/64, Windows 7 Linux (2.4.x/2.6.x), Mac (10.4.x/10.5.x)
Good, that keeps it in line with all its PPC cousins.
Well it hasn't worked out yet, we'll have to wait till it arrives and I install it.Great! glad it worked out
Thanks, I'll look into it right away.Hello! I use this on my Powerbook G4 with OS 10.4.11 and it works really well so it should work with your G5 no problem...

Yes, that's one (in this particular case the important) feature of the "ASUS 3G MOBILE Wireless Router (WL-330N3G)" too.You could always get a wifi to ethernet adapter and keep the USB port free.
Not only that, but most of these are configured through a web interface using almost any browser, and when configured the device simply does not care what the hardware or the OS is -- as far as it the machine is concerned, it is using wired Ethernet. This makes it great for networking even very old Macs without an actual wired Ethernet connection. And it also can provide 802.11n speeds AND provide WPA encryption.You could always get a wifi to ethernet adapter and keep the USB port free.
Unless the very reason for needing a USB dongle is because the systems ethernet port has crapped out.You could always get a wifi to ethernet adapter and keep the USB port free.
Have you considered a wifi to Ethernet bridge? It's a wifi client box with an Ethernet port. You configure it with a webgui.Any recommendations for a USB wi/fi dongle that'll work with my G5 quad?
I've marked this thread as "Resolved", DouglasCarroll's suggestion of an Edimax dongle appears will suit my needs best.Hello! I use this on my Powerbook G4 with OS 10.4.11 and it works really well so it should work with your G5 no problem...

The Edimax is also my first choice for my mobile macs - but when it comes to heavy traffic, that traffic of your Quad-G5 has to go through the bottleneck of USB-2. Any Ethernet2Wifi-solution will more than double the speed! Despite of the several Edimax-USB-stick I'm really fond of that Asus Mobile Wireless Router or anything of that kind.I've marked this thread as "Resolved", DouglasCarroll's suggestion of an Edimax dongle appears will suit my needs best.

Oh, right. Stupid me - didn't noticed that posting at all. Sorry ... also for your G5's Ethernet-port!Read post #18 for some insight as to why I chose the EDimax.
