airport problems

[John Slavin]

I know this isn't the list the post this on, but rather than 
subscribing to another list, I hoping someone can help me.  My little 
school just bought some eMac with Airport extreme base stations.  They 
have this setup in about 3 or 4 elementary rooms.  The high school is 
windows which is where the router is located.  The IT guy, who is the 
math teacher is having problems getting the airport to work.  I 
suggested someknowedgebase articles, but here is his response.:

Been through all of those docs etc. Even according to their info, when 
airport operates in dhcp/nat mode, bridging between the wan port and 
wifi is disabled. Therefore, wireless macs can't see wired macs, 
printers etc. Also, airport extreme will not pass Windows 2000 login 
traffic from Windows machines correctly regardless of the mode the 
base station is set to. Summary: Orinoco based graphite airports = 
good, non-Orinoco based white airports = steaming, stinking, piles of 
useless excrement in a large lan environment.


Any ideas?
