Wireless network mac & pc

TeaBoy_2

i'm wanting to have a wireless network for both my PC and Mac to share a broadband connection.
I currently have a USB modem with no ethernet socket so i presume i will need a new modem....

this seemed an absolute bargain but it doesn't say anything about being compatiable with a Mac, will that be the case?
if so, does anyone know of a good alternative for a similair price?
Cheers.

Don't know about that one but This
definately works with macs, but doesn't come with any cards at this price though.

It looks like you get two laptop cardbus cards, not pci cards.

I have not heard of any that don't work with macs. They all use 808.11b/g protocol. Apple call their version Airport but it's basically the same thing.

Yes, they should work together as I believe the modem has an Ethernet port. Perhaps you could confirm this.

You'll need two 'straight' (not crossover) Ethernet cables, one between the PC and router and one between the router and modem. Each device probably includes 1 Ethernet cable so you shouldn't have buy them.

At the top of the Techie forum (above the threads) there is a New Thread button. Click that.
