Hey guys
Getting a Linksys wireless router (WRT54G) OR modem router (WAG200G) soon.
Read some review saying it MAY NOT be compatible with Mac computers..
Is it true?? Anyone using those models without problem with their Mac??
Let me know
Thanks in adv

@kc26,
Though I don't use a LinkSys router, I've never had problems logging onto a LinkSys network smile.gif I think it'll be fine smile.gif

talk about connecting to a Linksys router...

I'm using a Linksys router, hacked its firmware to turn it into a wireless adapter for my Mac, which in turn connects to my D-Link router....

now that's one heck of an "incompatibility".... tongue.gif tongue.gif
