I am selling my old Apple Graphite Airport. It is in perfect shape, with the exception of a small hole added on the back to allow an external antenna. The ext. antenna makes a huge difference in range, and made it possible to recieve a full signal in my entire house (before antenna mod I could get 2-3 bars in the furthest rooms from the base station).

I have all original boxes, manuals, etc.

Pictures can be seen here:

Asking $75.00 shipped via USPS Priority Mail. I prefer PayPal.

Thanks

Dave

I have lowered the price to $60 shipped. Don't pass up this deal on a great Airport with better range!

Does this one have the modem installed inside of it?

I'm pretty interested in this... one more question.

I have a G4 tower and an iBook. The iBook already has AirPort, but the G4 doesn't. Can I hook up a phone line to the base station, and an Ethernet cable from the G4 to the base station, and use the base station like an AirPort card? Or something to that effect?

Thanks

Maybe a Mac Guru could answer this for certain...

I think you can do this. There is an option for ethernet bridging I believe. Never tried it though.

You could check Apple's knowledge base though.

email me at davebl@mac.com if you have anymore questions
