Default Mac wireless network dilema

I've just purchased a Linksys Wireless-G ADSL gateway (HG200-TS) and a Linksys@Home Wireless-G USB Network Adapter (HU200-TS) to help a freind share her Broadband connecxtion with her lodger. I purchased both from tescos.

All went well until I found out that the lodger has a Mac, whilst my freind has a normal PC.

Needless to say, the USB adapter states that it works with Win XP or 2k only.

I can't seem to find much at all about either product on the net, but was hoping that I could install the USB adapter to the Mac with the correct drivers (if I can find them...)

can anyone help or do I need to my a Mac USB Wireless G adapter? If so where do I find one...?

TIA

Forget the usb adaptor mate, they wont work with the mac.
You will either have to hard wire the mac to the router or depending on the model (your reply will help), You can use a wireless card (airport) to connect to the router
