I have an old apple blueberry laptop. Can I connect to wifi? I installed and airport card but it is not recognizing my network password when I enter it (I KNOW I am doing it right.)

The problem is.....the old G3 does not have the capability to connect to wireless networks using newer types of wireless security. You may have to set the wireless router to "no security" to allow the G3 to connect.

What is the make and model number of the wireless router that you are using?

In addition to Bob's comments:

• The original AirPort Card only supports 802.11b Wi-Fi networks.
• It can connect to Apple or non-Apple wireless access points.
• It is capable of connecting with either WEP or WPA wireless security, but the latter requires OS X 10.3.3 or later.
• Pre-OS X 10 AirPort-enabled computers can connect to non-Apple Wi-Fi networks, protected by WEP, but only if you do one of the following:
  • For hex keys, precede the key with a "$" sign. For example, if the key is: 0123456789ABCDEF0123456789, use $0123456789ABCDEF0123456789 Note: Using the dollar sign tells AirPort that you are sending the WEP key directly, and that it doesn't need to translate the password into it WEP equivalent.
  • For ASCII keys, enclose the key with double-quotation marks. For example, if the key is: ABCDE, use "ABCDE"
