Good afternoon,
I am new here but just a tech enthusiast trying to figure things out.
We have a quite old PowerPC Macintosh plugged to an special lab equipment that forces us to keep it running as it is. It runs OS X 10.4 and Mac OS 9, specially the latter. After the holidays the hard disk had to be changed and the drivers for the PC Card Aironet LMC 350 are now missing. Yes, the product End of Life date happened like a lot of years ago. The card has been working 9 to 5 since... well I wasn't even at the lab when the system got installed.
Laying an ethernet cable is impossible due to the laboratory distribution, now we are surviving with thumb drives and... Imation SuperDisks. We are afraid of using newer equipment as a USB dongle will be too slow with Mac OS 9 (only USB 1.1) and finding an adapter with OS 9 support would be even more difficult. We have considered a ethernet to wifi bridge but it makes us adding an extra thing in the lab and the ethernet port is only 10BaseT so, not a big upgrade. All the WEP unsafety things... well, it's not sensitive information and the network was then configured with a dedicated AP for this computer.
Hope somebody keeps this old driver somewhere. I do not know why Cisco retired these drivers from their site. Maybe just a big "UNSUPPORTED" notice should have been enough.
