802 PCI Wireless Card for MDD

[Retrosonic]

Hopefully someone can help. I'd like to install a PCI 802. Wireless card in my old G5 MDD. I dont want to use the old internal Airport card because its so slow.

Does anyone know exactly which PCI card I can use in the MDD? I was told Edimax made one, but no one seems to know the model number.

Any help is appreciated!

Hello, first post do please be kind. I am in a similar situation as you looking to add wifi to my MDD. Other world computing has a few that would work in and I believe is the same brand you mentioned. Also macwireless dot com has some that support up to wireless n. From my research anything that uses a broadcom chipset will work natively with apples airport software. Currently I am using a netgear wg111 v4 usb nic which works however not happy with performance.

Wireless card in my old G5 MDD.

Could you please clarify what computer this is, there is no such thing as a G5 MDD.
Is the mac silver aluminum?
Is it G4 or G5

Does it really matter if it's a G4 or G5? He want's a PCI WiFi card. It'll fit in most G5's and all G4's (except the Cube).

Thank you for any assistance.

Edimax does make one. It is the ew-7722ln. OWC has them for $35.

I have a newertech maxpower pci card. Works great but has been discontinued.
