I've been looking round for the ability to add wireless connectivity to my QuickSilver 733 G4 (2001 model), and have struck on success! I purchased a Belkin F5D7000...
Glad to hear that that worked. I believe you can put an Airport Card in your Quicksilver if you want.
Three years ago Circuit City was closing out its stock of original (80211b) Airport cards, and my dad picked up two for them, thinking he could put them in our iMacs. Unfortunately, my iMac was a rev.C and it doesn't have the card adapter (though it does have a connector for one). His Rev. D did have the adapter, and it works great.
Anyway, long story short, the other Airport Card now lives in my Digital Audio G4 tower, and the price for the card hasn't dropped in 3 years - in fact a lot of resellers are still asking over $50 for them!
But they are the best choice, due to their lack of compatibility issues. Even if we didn't have one laying around I would probably have bought one.
USB adapters are a pain in the arse, I would avoid them (bad experiences
)
