Have you tried going to network preferences and making sure it is on
auto (dhcp) for the IP. Or you can manually set the IP to an unused
one. Look at the one your notebook grabs and then just pick a different
number. I am not sure what the Airport routers use but as an example my
Linksys uses 192.168.1.x for internal IP. My Mac is 192.168.1.110 where
as my PC is 192.168.1.109 all you need to do is set it manually and use
the same router, DNS, etc as the notebook, only the IP needs to be
different.

Thanks for all the help in getting my new (to me) B&W up and running.
I managed to get my second drive slaved thanks to members on here, and
have it running OS X 10.3.9 with no problems, save one.
Last night all was well- the computer was connected to my airport
extreme base station via ethernet cable. It connected to the internet
well, I even transferred a few gigs of data from my iBook G4 to it.
However, this morning the Powermac does not see the base station, and
the base station does not issue the Powermac an IP address. I've
tried resetting the DSL modem and base station several times, to no
avail. I've reseated the ethernet cables several times as well. The
powermac sees that something is connected via ethernet, but nothing
more than that.
Anyone have any idea why the powermac is suddenly disconnect like this?
