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.

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?
Hi Kevin,
The "hopefully-not-so-silly" question is "which airport extreme do you
have?"
The airport extreme is available both with and without modem...
M8799X/A AirPort Extreme Base Station (with modem and antenna port)
M9397X/A AirPort Extreme Base Station (with Power over Ethernet support
and conformance to UL 2043)
(model number should be on the base)
Assuming you have a modem, you should be able to configure the Base
Station using the instructions at:
<http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/
AirPortExtremeBaseStationSetupGuide.pdf>
I'd connect via an ethernet cable when setting it up, and make sure you
have the latest versions of Airport and Airport admin (as you indicated
you're doing).
HTH
Steve
