Hi there. I'm not even sure if this is the right forum for this. . .
A reasonable doubt, considering the growing proportion of non-Mac to Mac topics on this ostensibly Mac board. But I come often for help with arcane Mac (and Windoze) problems, and find there is still a pool of real expertise underneath the froth of trivia (for which I am as guilty as any).
I looked on Everymac.com to see if the FW 800 PowerBooks supported Airport Extreme, and they do. So if you've got everything connected properly, and if you still can't see the card in the Network Settings, then it's either the card or the motherboard. Did the friend use it with an Airport card?
