It was recognized in Mac OS 8.0 with the Wavelan drivers version 6.00.4, but would only connect to a computer-to-computer wireless network created on my iBook G3 (Original Airport) with no security. It would not connect to a wireless router (Linksys WRT45G) even after disabling security entirely. We assume there is some security aspect of modern WAPs causing issues with this card. In OSX 10.1 and 10.2 it requires the drivers from. However it should work in OSX 10.3 upwards using the built in Airport software. This card was tested in OS8 and reported by Lucas Salzman.

Hacking the AirPort Slot If you want to use an internal card in place of the original overpriced Apple AirPort card, check out on GeekTechnique, which explains how to modify a Lucent/Orinoco Silver card to fit into the iBook’s AirPort slot and work. I have tried the hack at GeekTechnique, and it works in iBooks – but not PowerBooks.

The AirPort slot in PowerBooks is in the wrong place, and while the Lucent/WaveLAN/Orinoco Silver will function in the AirPort slot, it is too long to close the bottom of the case. I have also tried this AirPort hack in an iMac G3. Earlier models were not AirPort compatible, while later models require an AirPort bracket to install it. So, I got hold of an AirPort bracket for an iMac G3 and tried my Orinoco card in it. Fitting it in was a tight squeeze, but it did not require any trimming and hey presto it worked no problems.
