[G4] Wireless Networking for iBook

[Jason McClary]

I've used D-Link models for years with no problems. That said though  
the newest D-link I got (http://games.dlink.com/products/? 
pid=370&#DGL-4300) is nice but the web interface doesn't work very  
well with Safari. I ended up having to use a PC and IE to do all the  
configuration options.

On the iBook side though it had no problems connecting up.
