Unless you are using an Airport base station, your wireless access point is extremely unlikely to route the AppleTalk protocol. As long as all the machines are running at least OS 9, then just turn on the AppleTalk over TCP/IP option in the File Sharing control panel in OS 9. Then you should be able to resume using Appletalk over the wireless. (this won't help any Appletalk based printers). -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> -- MacNetwork is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
