If you don't own this, then please don't buy it. If you do own this laptop and you are in America, any starbucks coffee shop, mcdonalds, some burger kings, barnes & noble bookstores, some Hastings book stores, and other places you see a wifi sign. Honestly, though, this model of mac won't run the current operating system being sold today. Technology has changed since this laptop. For example, the 'Sony PS Vita slim', which fits in many a pocket or purse, can do the following functions: - check, reply, and compose email - surf the web - type in multiple languages by simply enabling a different keyboard - watch youtube videos - look over pictures on flickr and manage pictures on flickr - watch videos and movies on crackle(free) and crunchyroll(subscription) - make phone calls to cell phones and landlines with skype - set alarms to wake up to, or set timers for cooking food - keep organized with a calendar that is synched with Google - search for a street address - utilize twitter, facebook, skype - play music files like mp3 - play videos - watch netflix or rent movies at the PS Store(online) - digitally paint on it(colors!) - take pictures and videos - video chat - and other things... and games too. All those features above fit in my pocket for 200 bucks before a sale. I mean, I remember this laptop costing a 1000 bucks. Most people I see using consumer line of macs today rarely do anything outside of the features listed above. When they type their book reports, they often use the college computers.

go to wifi icon than menue put in your password to your wireless and you are connected. I had to do it a few times to get it right. Also download pamlet and it tells you in there.

~ You need to get the mac G5 airport / bluetooth (mount) runaway card. Follow the links below to see pics of what I mean. Keep in mind the little airport (the gray card) is in different configurations like this &gt; Bluetooth & wifi -or- wifi only -or- bluetooth only. I would advise to get the Bluetooth and wifi combo. But none of these are going to work with out the "runaway" mounting card (the blue card). That is what allows the "airport" to work. So in other works you will need a ( 2 ) card combination to get you computer on the internet, bluetooth / both. check out the links I have sent you to see what you will need. ~ Keep in mind these are hard to find. When I started looking for them it took me a month to find them. And I accidental bought the gray bluetooth card, not knowing there were different versions at that time. On the grey card look for the ones that advertise both the bluetooth & wifi symbol. Were I currently have a bluetooth card to a G5 I will probably never use. If you have any more questions, just contact me back. As I know where to find certain other things you "might" need for this computer on down the road. My G5 is the main computer that I am using.

Yes, just download the Airport Utility program from the Apple Support website. The Utility will walk you through the process - really easy.

You have to get a separate one for now. The drivers aren't yet available on OSX. The bluetooth will work but you will have no wifi. I'm keeping mine in a drawer until it becomes available.

I personally don't own a mac but doing a search on the forums i found this: http://www.usbuirt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=749&highlight;=macHopefully it helps.

Michelle, I would assume so. They have drivers for it and it's in the quick setup documentation. But I don't have a mac.

You need to have a FireWire port in your PC. If, you have Mac, the port is already there.

The link is back up. Can anyone comment on the Mac drivers? I'm thinking about buying one of these if it works well.

If you're talking about any driver S/W you should be able to download it from the Macally web site. Call their tech support if you can't find it. Can't recollect if there was even a CD or driver, don't think so now that I think about it.

Is it even possible to have a network adapter without a MAC address, I don't believe so.

I don't know how to help you with WiFi. However for BlueTooth, you could get a different BlueTooth adapter. I got a Medialink USB BlueTooth adapter. You have to download Apple BlueTooth tools. Google "mac bluetooth hardware io tools".

the product works fine with a mac....instead of using the set up cd (which is XP/Vista based only) go to the web based setup of linksys (192.168.1.1). essentially you will connect the modem to the router (to the internet ethernet slot), then connect your mac to one of the port slots -- there's four of them -- (this is an ethernet to ethernet connection with the supplied cable), open up safari (or whatever browser you are using) and type in the setup address (192...), you will need to insert the password/login (admin for both).... and viola you're able to setup it up on a mac. because the router is plugged into the modem and you are plugged into the router -- you can leave most of the default information as is. you will probably want to change the SSID (or else it just reads linksys) and if you are closing the network you will want to set up the WEP key (or WPA key) -- and of course you will want to go to the admin tab and change the network management login from admin to something less easy. once you have saved the changes, unplug the ethernet look for the SSID and enter the WEP key. it may take a second to show up on your mac (if it takes longer then a hot second -- unplug modem powersource for about 10 seconds and replug it in -- this will allow your modem to rollover the IP address) otherwise you should be okay. while somethings in the mac/pc world matter (mac has a 6 pin firewire connection while PC has a 4 pin connection) this router fortunately isn't once of them. hopefully this is helpful as you get the same thing as the airport express at half the cost with this router.

Mine is hooked up to a PC, mapped to the network (Windows for all its sins does this pretty well in the Control Panel), and I just drag and drop to it from my Mac all the time. I partitioned it before use. Most seamless thing ever.

I do not own a Mac, so I guess I can't make any promises. However, wifi in general is a fairly stable standard. In other words, I'd be really surprised if this didn't work with any Mac. I have had a guest with a Macbook Pro connect to it without issue. I don't mean to offend you, but if you are asking a question like this I'm concerned that you don't know what you are looking at. This is an "Access Point" and not a "router". If you don't know the difference between the two, you're probably looking for a "router"...

I don't know about the Mac part, but everything you need to set this up is on the internet.
