i just set up a netgear fwg114p wireless router, and it went surprisingly well, and i'm able to hook to the web when i have an ethernet into my Ti book (with b airport card).


i've set up my wireless network via the router, enabled a wireless access point, and even set the WEP to open system, disabling encryption.

and when i disconnect the cat5 cable, restart, and turn on my aiport, the network shows up in the airport list.

however, when i try to select it, i get a 'error joining selected airport network'.

wondering what i'm doing wrong here to get my Ti book with the old airport (802.11b) to connect to the network?

thanks!!

okay, hasty post, perhaps:

i got it to work by adding the wireless card to the access list.

i disabled access list to allow anyone to find it. for now

cheers!
