      MR. MACINTOSH23  This is the BEST!!! On my old G3 iMac, it worked flawlessly, then my brother Nathan Weaver, told me it MAY! not work on my G4 eMac, but I took it as "doesn't work at all." 1. because he's always right about mac stuff, and 2. because he researches things very, very good, thus I thought he came across something that said "Zydas WiFi Max Reciver does NOT! work on eMacs." thus, that's why I thought Ralink was better, but apparently not, because it couldn't even connect to our Linksys Wireless Router without the encrypted security off, which would be very, very, very, very, BAD!!! Anyway, Zydas ROCKS!!!

      It's the ONE AND ONLY WAY!!! to connect to the internet wirelessly on an eMac.

      My next post will contain step-by-step instructions on getting internet connection with the WiFi Reciever. DO NOT REPLY JUST TO SAY "IT'S ATHEROS, NOT ZYDAS

      One more thing... RALINK IS FREAKIN BULL-****.  (Version 4.5.70)

      TEDROBERTS  The link to the download site appears to be broken.

      Does this mean that support for the Macintosh OS X drivers is about to stop.  (Version 4.5.70)

      SOHONET  Version 4.5.70 is now available. Configure a ZyXel G-220 with no problems on Mac OS 10.4.7. Connection works well if SSID is set to visable, fails if SSID is hidden. The ZyXel G-220 work well with a Mac and USB 1.1 (i.e. Macintosh Cube).  (Version 4.5.60)
