Griffin 1092-XPRSD AirBase/Desktop Stand for Airport Express Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I would have given 5 stars but was very annoyed when the cable kept falling out of its attachment. I found a way to twist it around the chrome bit that sticks out the back.However, the signal seems to be so much better as the room my Power Mac G5 is in sits down the hall and around a corner. The airport extreme sits high on a cabinet in the room of the Mac and really didn't work well with itunes giving a signal to my home stereos system, now it is a joy to hear all my itunes so far away uninterrupted. I'm always impressed with Griffin, but disappointed the cable was loose.

Product Description:
The AirBase's industrial design merits more than being plugged into a wall socket and hidden away. The AirBase makes an elegant artistic statement that compels you to display it on the desk, shelf or entertainment center. The Griffin AirBase increases effective range and signal efficiency for your network and AirTunes by raising the base station up into the room.

Apple M8881LL/A AirPort Extreme Card Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The beauty of Apple is the simplicity of their products - the Mac, the iPod, everything just works without having to consult Carl Sagan, Neil Armstrong or Miss Cleo.

A note to those wanting to go wireless with an older computer: The Airport Card and the Airport Extreme Card are two different critters. They look different and this card will not work on older Macs fitted for the standard Airport card. Apple doesn't even sell the old Airport cards anymore. If you have an older Mac and want to get more speed, you cannot hotwire it to do more with the newer card - you'll just blow a gasket on your Mac.

If you're adding a new computer to your existing Airport-based network and are underwhelmed by the performance, you may be using an original Airport Base Station - these older models maxxed out at 11bps, where the new ones max out at 54bps - a nearly 500% increase in network access speed.

This is NOT the model to get for a Mac Mini. The Mac Mini has a different form factor and has a slot for a special Airport & Bluetooth combo card that this card will not work with.

Installation is a snap - literally. Pop it into place and attach the antenna cord and you've got WiFi. I installed one of these on my older 1Ghz iBook G4 and instantly saw all the wireless networks in my neighborhood. Viva la Macintosh!

Apple Airport Wireless Card for Mac Pro - Network adapter - 802.11b, 802.11a, 802.11g, 802.11n (draft) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I installed this in my Mac Pro. I'm running a 2 x 3 Ghz Dual-Core intel Xeon computer, made in 2007. I installed it myself, which was easy enough, but I've worked with computers before, if you haven't I recommend to use A LOT OF PATIENCE. As it's tiny screws, and tiny plugs. But it's easy enough. It's running on the 802.11 g network, although it does run on any a/b/g/n. So if I buy the airport express, I can easily upgrade.
Very very happy that I have this, as now my internet doesn't need the cord. And if you live in a city, you can more than likely find a friendly person to share the internet with you and save 50 some bucks a month.

Buy this if you want wireless internet for a Mac Pro. So far I've seen them work in every Mac Pro, from the 2006 models, right up to the 2009 models.
