I have a Powerbook G4 12", i already went online in a wireless network, but since i installed my new Belkin 2.4Ghz, 802.11b Wireless Router, i haven't been able to get the signal, o have the computer recognize the wireless network, although i have already reach the network connection with a Windows XP PC. Does anyone know why doesn't my computer recognize the wireless signal?

Thank you

I have the same powerbook and had the same problem
with my Netgear 802.11b 11bps router. I changed my
Airport card to an Airport Exstream card. Then it
connected.

The connection was slow so I changed my router to a
802.11b-g 54bps router and now my connection is much
quicker.

I am connecting to a Linux server and a XP box and it
works just fine.

The 2 things I did:
1. Changed my airport card to an airport exstream card.
2. Changed my router to an 54 bps router.

Hope this helps. Good luck.....
