I need to connect a eMac - power mac 6,4 -PowerPC G4 (1.1) to the internet wirelessly running mac osx 10.4.11.

Can anyone advise me please. I have done some research and think a USB adapter is the best option as I doubt the eMac will be able to take a card but the software will have to be able to run on tiger.

Might be an idea to ask them for confirmaion that it will work with your Mac, but it should do!
