I currently run a PC on a Wireless network at home using a Netgear DG824m router and want to use a Mac Powerbook Pro as well. Can anyone advise of the Mac will see and connect to the network automatically or will I have to adjust the settings in any way?
Cheers
Paul
"Mac Powerbook Pro"...
Oh never mind. Start by using Internet Connect, as you do not have an Airport base station. It's in the Applications folder. Have IC scan for your Netgear (wireless?) router.
And a jolly cheerio to you too.
So in sarcasm free English that's a yes then?
Cheers again.
Paul
Step by step:
Start Internet Connect and choose Turn Airport On. Select your Netgear network SSID from the Network Name pull-down menu. Choose your encryption type - and enter the key if you are asked for the key - in Wireless Security and klik OK; otherwise just hit the OK button.
