Smile Wireless Network, G4, Tiger, Linksys

Hello!

My girlfriend and I recently purchased a Mac G4 to accomodate her schooling, and we've been having a little trouble getting it wirelessly online. As the situation currently stands, the G4 does not recognize the wireless card as an Airport Card.

Our hardware includes:

Computer
Mac OSX 10.4.6
Dual 1 ghz PowerPC G4
2 MB L3 cache per processor
512 MB RAM

PCMCIA Card
Linksys WPC54GS ver.2 SpeedBooster

Router
Linksys DI-524

There are currently several WinXP computers hooked up both wirelessly and via ethernet, and now we are trying to get the G4 online.

I've done some research on the issue via this support forum and others, and the concensus seems to be that the WPC54GS works well, as opposed to the WPC54Gv2 that may result in negative comments if anyone should desire Googling it.

Also, I went to Library > Preferences > SystemConfiguration > Networkinterfaces.plist and i changed en0 to en1. I restarted the machine to no avail.

So my questions are:

A) Are these pieces of hardware compatible with each other,
and
B) If so, what am I doing wrong?

Thank you!

// Jon
