[WiFi for an iMac]
Much better to get a WiFi to Ethernet bridge.

Thanks - had a look, they look quite pricey! Especially given the fact
that I originally only paid ?80 for the iMac on ebay!

Got an unused Linksys wireless router like this one
<http://tinyurl.com/yqgplj>. Can this be made to work?

I don't know if it will act as a bridge by default, but some of the
Linksys wireless routers can run Linux, so can be made to act as a
wirless bridge (or just about anythign else!). It might be a bit of
effort to set one up that way though.

A search for the router model and "linux" should let you find out if
it's an option.
