        If by "the driver" you mean the "airport.o" driver by Ben H.,
        then you'll have to follow any documention he provides.

        You need the latest PCMCIA software and wireless tools
        installed.

        There are free (non-Apple) applications for configuring a base
        station.

        http://www.best.com/~pjl/personal/powerbook/wireless.html

        That contains information and links.
