[G4] Motorola Wireless WPCI810G will not connect

[Jim Pacyga]

Is your access point public or private (i.e., do you broadcast your 
SSID?)  If you don't, it is possible that newer airport software just 
won't find it (even when you give it the name).

If you have it private, make it public, restart the access point, then 
try to connect to it.  That should work afterwards you can reset the 
access point to being private.
