Is the Buffalo AirStation Turbo G High Power Wireless Ethernet Converter WLI-TX4-G54HP a good choice? It seems to be economical for older iMacs. Any recommendations?

You have to note the particular kind of connector on your coax; different manufacturers use different kinds for their antenna jacks, so you either need one that matches or an adapt…

As of this morning, our account was set up and I have the high speed internet working via the LinkSys Wireless-B Ethernet Bridge connected directly to the iMac via the short includ…

yes, another speaker thread am looking for speakers for my bedroom...to hook up to a powerbook (thru an airport express); narrowed it down (i think) to these: klipsch promedia…

The jbl creatures look kinda neat, but the crossover problem inherent in every satellite system is taken to an appalling extreme here: The mids are non-existent. You've got ouch-…

On the other hand Klipsch speakers have a reputation for being rather good.

What nJm said. I haven't heard the Promedia 2.0s but the Creature IIs sound bad, I would recommend against them.

funny... i have a music biz friend who has the jbl's in his office, loves them. both speakers have good reviews. ilounge loves the jbls. on amazon, both get raves (and dislikes, …

I worked at an Apple Store last summer, and had the fortunate experience of hearing all our speakers being turned up to the max everyday, afterwhich I concluded the klipsch we had …

Has anyone tried hooking up their Canon MP830 to the USB port of the Airport? Does the scan-to-computer feature still work when done this way? Most likely the printing will work, j…

AFAIK, no.

For some reason, powerbook will not charge my ipod while it is sleeping. Instead of leaving the computer on for hours, I decided to use the airport express as a charger for the ipo…

I don't think Apple intended you to use the base station to charge the iPod. In any case, it sounds like it's fooling the iPod into always being active, which can't be good for it …

I know you can use the Airport Express to charge an iPod Shuffle with no issues, in fact I am sure I read an Apple KB article about it. Not sure about other iPods though, they may…

Your PowerBook is not charging your iPod when it is asleep because, as per the definition of sleep, no power is being sent to the PowerBook's USB ports. If you truly don't use you…

I bought a linksys wireless WRT54G router for my MacBook. It works fine when no securtiy is enabled. The problem is that it won't work with WEP. I set up WEP, turn it on, enter the…

The way a WEP key is entered in a Linksys router is different from the way the key is entered on a Mac. In fact, Apple does almost everything different from the rest of the indust…

Thanks. Works perfect.

Ok I was not sure which section to go for but felt this more of a techniocal problem. My old Fedora Core 5 Machine had a 60gig drive which I am keeping. I want to transfer the da…

Are you setting the Powerbook in target disk mode or are you just connecting these two together with Firewire, thinking they'll show up on the desktop? Shut down the Powerbook. C…
