I have a 6 computer network; 2 pc laptops w/wireless cards, 2pc's w
ethernet cards; a Mac G5 with both an ethernet card and I just
installed an airport extreme card and a G4 laptop with both ethernet
and airport wireless abiliities.

I have a Linksys DSL 4port router and a Linksys Wireless-G Access Point
attached to my dsl modem.

I got one wireless laptop to work fine, but cant figure out how to get
the mac to read wireless.....I don't know how to set it up...

any suggestions?

The Macs should show any detected WiFi system. Look at the top right of
your menu. If your existing network uses a hex password, just precede it
with a $ on the Macs. If it uses an Ascii password, then translate that
into hex and enter it with the $. The Macs will remember.
