You will need to have a wireless router set up, in order to take
advantage of Airport. For example, I have a Linksys router set up for
my Airport utility, in order to take advantage of Airport cards, both
in my iMac and Mac Mini. Richie Gardenhire, Anchorage, Alaska.

Hi everyone. I'm wondering if someone can tell me what I am
missinghere. I don't have a wireless network here at home, but was
playing with the network configuration to try to figure out how to
enable the airport feature, since their may come a time when I take
my mac mini to a place that uses wireless networking. I realize I
don't have a network to connect to, but I could not even get the
airport feature to enable. In network preferences, I chose to add a
service, and selected airport. An option became available to turn on
airport, so I selected that but it had no effect. Do I actually need
to use the assistant and enter the name of a wireless network before
airport will enable? Also, do I need to use the airport utility
application, or is all of this done in network preferences?
