May 10, 2010 10:49 AM in response to tcarlsonby Jan Hedlund,Hi,
A quick Google search indicates that 3Com XJAEM3336 Mac drivers were available for at least some PowerBook computers. However, it is unclear to me whether the files here are needed, appropriate or sufficient in your case. Perhaps you could look further into this.
If you cannot locate a suitable Ethernet PC Card with Mac drivers, another solution could possibly be to use a 16-bit wireless card (typically, 802.11b speed and WEP security). See, for example, this web page.

Been there, done that. My Orinco card works fine on my Airport Extreme "Guest" network with NO SECURITY. Problem is... Apple. No WEP for Airport Extreme unless I disable my 802.11 n connection. I want something that will work with my older machines. Maybe this option will be a solution:

May 18, 2010 4:12 AM in response to tcarlsonby Niteshooter,A card that I know will work with your 1400 since I use them on mine is the Global Village Powerport platinum.
Drivers here, http://modems.globalvillage.com/support/powerport-platinum.html
If you find a used one make sure you get the dongle that plugs into it as they are proprietary, it will give you a 10T and phone jack side by side. Any other dongle shipping with it is the wrong one.
