I'm looking to upgrade the Airport card in my PowerMac G4.
The stock Apple card gets poor reception in my house, so I'd like to get a PCI b/g card for a speed / range boost. Something with a directional antenna would be great, but not required.

Does anyone have one of these laying around? I'm looking to spend $50 or so.

Edit: I'd alternatively go for an range extending antenna that plugs into the internal Airport card.

I actually have this and the dam thing only holds connections for aprox 20 mins, and every time you turn it back on you have to put in your password, due to the lazy driver developers who couldn't add options to the app that came with it.

Ick, no USB for me. I'd rather build a pringle can antenna.

I’ve got a card. Its 802.11g. It’s a belkin. It works with Mac. You just need airport installation CD or online driver. E-mail me if you want it. I paid $40 for it. It was only popped in for 2 secs and then sat in its box. So, Id like to get back at least most of what I paid. Send me an offer.
