I don't think this error message is related to your CPU but rather to your
WiFi chipset. I would try installing the legacy version of the driver.

I will be able to test this myself in around a month after I have moved
into my new apartment. I will have enough space there to set up all
my retro computers, including one iBook G4. Although, I don't know what
kind of wireless chipset mine has. I have two iBook G4 though, so maybe
we're lucky one of them has the right chipset.

If you can wait until then, I will be able to help.

Thanks,
Adrian
