Q: How do I bypass the AirPort internal card and use a PC Card-based adapter instead?

I have an old PowerBook Titanium. These things, as you know, have horrible Wi-Fi reception.

Is there a way I can (without removing the card from the computer if at all possible) bypass the internal AirPort card and pipe the connection into a PC Card Wi-Fi adapter instead?

 

The card is a Netgear card, and its icon shows up in the menu bar.

PowerBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8), G4 Titanium
