You should only have to turn on the AirPort from the menu where the clock and so forth is located. It'll look for wireless networks to join. You shouldn't have to add the service.

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?
