First don't go ATT. You will have to use their router an it is horrible. If
you have to use ATT you will have to set it to port forwarding to use the
AirPort Extreme. Had to do this with mine. As the restrictions and throttling
of the traffic was horrible. With the port forwarding I was able to

Thanks Jonathan, this is a good note to keep. I have an ATT DSL line at home,
hooked to an Airport Extreme. It’s been installed for a good while, put the
Modem in Bridge mode and has worked fine.
At my office I was able to get U-Verse, they installed and put the modem in

Happy Thanksgiving from me, too.
I learned something, again. I never knew where actually I would find
my airport if I needed to look it up. So, now I know. Not, that I
would know what to do in an emergency ; there I would hope to get your

Thank you John, Neal Lee for your input. I was leaning towards
getting another Express (or two), but didn't know if I was over
looking a cheaper solution. I think I'll also try moving the Extreme
down from the upper shelf, maybe mounting on the wall. Thanks!

Hello Group-
Looks like a wet week-end, perfect time to solve my only Mac
problem. I have had an AirPort Extreme for over a year and have
never been happy with the reception. I have it sitting on a top
shelf of a 2nd floor room in a not-huge house. I start losing the
signal almost as
Bill,
I have had the exact same setup you are describing (other than I have
a Dr. Bott antenna) and have experienced the same difficulties. We
lived in an 800 sq. foot two story while our home was being built,
the Airport Extreme was on the second floor. I could point the
antenna
Neal,
This is good, thanks for your input, this is what I have been
confronted with many times, so the Airport Express units completely
eliminate this problem, and by sticking with Apple then as soon as
enhancements comes along I get it and don't have to worry about Apple
making a change
I am having trouble with my Airport Extreme base station. It randomly
loses its connection, and we can only have one computer on it at a
time. If my computer is working, my husbands laptop isn't and
vice-versa. Apple says it is the modem and Insightbb says it is the
airport. I tend to agree
Does anyone know if there is an Airport Extreme external PCMCIA card
available for the 800 MHz 15 Powerbooks? I hear the reception on the built
in card is terrible. I also have to go from the base station up on the
second floor to my TV room in the basement. Ward, does Mactown have anything

Hi Andy,
There's more to Airport Extreme technology than just having an airport
extreme card. But it sounds like your major gripe is with the range, not
the throughput. You may want to check out the products on this site as well
as this specific link:
I have a new PowerBook G4 12 with an Airport Extreme card (from MacTown).
My base station is not an extreme, but rather 27b1cb.
Airport works fine with my regular Platinum G4 with 3 or 4 bars in the very
same room as the new PowerBook where I get zero bars. If I carry the PB
nearer to the ABS, I
