MN 700 & IBook G3 Airport

Hello,

We have been trying to connect our IBook G3 to the
wireless system with no luck. The Airport card does see
our broadcast ID, but claims an that we have an "error"
and does not connect. Funny, the G3 doesnt tell you what
crazy "error" it happen.

Any ideas? I was able to connect the g4 Laptop with no
problems whatsoever.

Thanks!

is the MN700 set to mixed b/g mode? airport or airport extreme? what
Mac OS and version of Airport s/w? have you entered the WEP key
correctly? some versions of airport require you to enter a $ in front
of the WEP key to indicate HEX. old old original airport cards only
support 64 bit WEP.
