I have a Mac Mini that I ordered without wireless because I didn't need it at the time. Go figure, I'm about to move to a place that will need it to be wireless. I'm looking for a cheap way to get it wireless, and stumbled across the Linksys WET11 Wireless Bridge. It claims Mac compatibility without drivers. Does anyone have any experience with this?

No hands-on experience, but I've seen a lot of people say they like it with their Macs. TheWET11 has a browser interface; you'll connect it via ethernet to your Mini and use your browser to configure it. Should be no problem. BUT... It's 11Mbps only. Maybe you'll want the WET54G instead; it's 54Mbps... Probably not too much more expensive, too.

I've got the WET-11. I use it with my Bondi iMac (the very first iMac from '98). A very nice solution to wireless networking. No drivers and uses the Ethernet port. Also works with the Sony PS2 and a crappy Dell I've got.
