[DM-MUG] USB Wireless adapter

[Ray Bowler]

It has been an interesting evening. Network is Home network 2 using  
WPA2 Personal. Still had the problem and I wasn't sure that the  
Airport Card was shipped in the machine. Right!!!!!  I bought the  
iBook and the base station 1/24/2002 from  CompUSA. The Airport Card  
was shipped that same day from Dallas.  Neither of the numbers  
mentioned in the discussion thread are on my card. I'm back to  
questioning the card.
