my son just traded for a good G4, so what wireless card do I need, and how do i put it in?
 
Which model of what? Need a bit more info.... 🙂

Click the :apple: in the upper=left corner, then "About this Mac"

Under "Mac OS X", what version?

Now click on "More Info".

In that screen, what is the Model Name and Model Identifier?

10.2.8
 
If I remember right up to the quick silver they used the original airport card. From there up it was the airport extreme. I have a friend that just went out and purchased a $20 USB wifi adapter and has no problems with it
 

That's the version of the operating system. Really need the model number and model name, which is on the next screen.

Bottom line, you will probably be able to use, as another poster stated, a simple UBP-wireless adapter. We've just got to be sure it'll be compatible.

So, about that model name/number.. ?
