Q: Trying to connect our old clamshell iBook G3/300 OS X 10.4.10

We have the old, the original, "clamshell" iBook G3/300MHz, in lovely tangerine, which I'd like to get on the internet here at home.

It has Mac OS X 10.4.10

The AirPort Card Information is as follows:

     Wireless Card Type: AirPort

     Wireless Card Locale: USA

     Wireless Card Firmware Version: 9.52

     Current Wireless Network: wireless network not available

So, our home network uses a wpa2 personal password.

In the Network preferences, I can set up a preferred network and specify wpa2 personal for the password type.

Setting things to Automatic does nothing. Invoking a network connection via the wifi icon in the menu bar brings up a dialogue for me to specify the network, which is found, but the choices for password type are only: WEP Password, WEP 40/128-bit hex, WEP 40/128-bit ASCII, and LEAP.

Am I not seeing a choice for wpa2 personal as a password because of a hardware limitation?

We just want to get this old thing online ASAP, and then eventually sell it to someone who is into retro Mac stuff. 

Thanks to all on these terrific forums who can be of help.
