Hey there!

Can anyone help me or point me to an FAQ / web page that would explain how to get an Apple Base Station talking to AOL.

Their client works fine when installed on my TiBook and using a wired connection. Now that I've got that working I'd like to get my Airport talking to AOL, but I can't figure out how to configure their client.

AOL tech support is CLUELESS. They are reading from PC suport sheets, keeping refering to the 'Start' button, blah, blah, blah.

I spent one hour on the phone with them last night and won't call back, it was such a negative experience.

Thanks for your help - take care

Are they on broadband? If they are on broadband they should be able to just connect up the base station and set AOL up from connect through LAN and it should jsut work. that is how mine is setup.
