Any old wireless access point, such as a linksys WAP54 (note that's WAP54, not WRT54) attached to your quadra's ethernet port will work. Data goes from your mac, via cable to the WAP, wireless from the WAP to your router...voila, one wireless quadra!

To act as a wireless client the WAP54G needs to connect to another linksys product.If you want to use it as a client and have it connect to a router/access point of a different brand you need to slap DD-WRT on there or something. I put DD-WRT on my WAP54G so I could use it in client mode with my DLink router and once I had it setup(an easy setup really) I have not had to touch it since.
