Thanks for the info and suggestions everyone - I have a couple of
questions - I did try to set up both airports (extreme and express)
with wds but had no success in enabling the express ethernet to date -
but I'll continue to play with the settings - should I have the express
set to distribute ip addresses as well?
The other is a related problem - I regularly use my home network with a
thinkpad to connect to a company server via VPN. This works just fine
between the PC ethernet connection and the LAN connection of my extreme
but I recently had the thinkpad fitted with a cisco b/g card. Using
the wireless connection I can now see the airport network just fine
from the pc and can connect to the internet (e.g. explorer), but I
can't seem to connect from the PC through VPN. It tries but fails to
connect to ' port 10000 ' on a variety of company server gateways using
the cisco Systems VPN client, but cannot connect. Is there something
in the airport set-up which stops connection to 'port 10000'? Actually
I don't know what connect to port 10000 means! Is this anything to do
with 'Port Mapping'?
Any help appreciated - David
