just got me an old iBook G3 for 50 bucks, couldnt turn it down. i have Tiger on it, version 10.4.11. (my main computer is a AMD athlon quad core, 12GB ram, geforce GTS250 1GB, windows 7 ultimate, so the older iBook seems prehistoric to me..) i bought a netgear USB wireless adapter and installed the mac drivers from the netgear website. last night the internet was working, though it would randomly time out and i would have to kill the connection and reconnect. now, it will not connect period. the netgear utility says its connected, but the app store isnt connecting, and safari says im offline. im on the same connection right now with my PC, and its working fine, so i know its not the connection. ive tried everything i know, and i cant get it back online. does it sound like i need a driver reload?
