Hi every1, This is probably old-hat but I'm a bit stuck trying to connect wirelessly using a new (i.e. unconfigured) Airport Extreme to my dial-up ISP.
The Airport Extreme has a phone port to which I connected the phone line. My iBook (G3 - 600 MHz - system 10.3.8) detects a strong signal from the Airport when switched on but insists on telling me I am connected via Ethernet which I clearly am not. I cannot figure out how to configure the Airport so that it will dial-up my ISP. The software that came with the Airport is a bit old (it keeps asking me to download an update, which I am doing at the moment) but am I just missing something very basic here? I just want to be able to log onto the internet from my office without using the current 50m of phone cable. I have tried Airport Setup Assistant and Airport Admin Utility without success - it tells me that it cannot detect anything connected to the Airport - and since I haven't been able to dial-up yet it's probably right! :) Cheers, Kevin from wycheproof. P.S. I assume the Airport Extreme contains a modem? Is the problem getting my settings from the iBook's internal modem to the Airport's inbuilt modem? ___________________________________________________ Check-out GO.com GO get your free GO E-Mail account with expanded storage of 6 MB! http://mail.go.com
