I put my brother's old power mac on our wireless network with a Netgear 
wireless ethernet bridge.  Worked right out of the box w/o any setup at 
all.  The box didn't even list Mac as being compatible, but I didn't 
understand why it wouldn't be.  TCP/IP is a universal language.  The 
only down side is they are rather expensive.  I paid something like $75 
for it.  Still beats running CAT5 through the walls.
