It'd be useful to have more control over what the wireless card connects to. For instance if there are several access points with the same name and one wants a particular one, being able to specify the channel or MAC address to use would help.

Don't install this on anything but OS X 10.4!

If you install it on 10.3, make sure you have the older version handy as this current version will KILL your wireless card. You'll then need to uninstall this and reinstall the old version.

Still works great in 10.3.5. In fact while it drives the Prism based card (on external antenna) the Airport Extreme driver is running a Broadcom based card in the second slot of a Wallstreet PB. The Prism card gives net access (shared to other machines through the ethernet port), while the Broadcom card is letting me stream audio from iTunes to my Airport Express. The only problem I have with this driver is getting that international dialog forcing me to restart if I eject the card while the machine is in use.
