OK I've created the comp network on the MDD. I have Airport turned on
on the MDD connected to the MDD network, also it has an Ethernet
connection to the router. In the Internet pane I tell it to share the
Ethernet connection to computers using Airport.
I connect to the MDD via AirPort from my Wally ( I gave up on the
iBook for now because it's got 10.1 and the wally is 10.4.11) I can
do all normal sharing stuff but it will not let me connect to the
net? Does this look right so far?
Start by pinging the router.
Post the Wallstreets IP info from the Network System Preference.
There may be a problem with those settings.
What error message do you get when you try to go to the Internet?
From you description, my best guess is that the Wallstreet isn't
getting the right DNS server address.
Boy this darn wireless connection stuff is a bitch. I really don't
think
Apple cares a lot about us Macoholics that have every system and
machine
they made and want them all on the net at once.LOL
Thanks Clark I've been trying to do this for some time. That did the
trick. Now How about security on a system like this or am I asking a
little too much? I notice that I need no password to connect to the
MDD where as on the Ethernet connections a password is required
