My girlfriend has a linksys--and runs windows on her network--- I searched for the router on my ibook airport..... and bingo!!! what a breeze!!!!--
at home--I connect my apple station to a dsl---and then let my airport searches for it and found it also--just remember when connected via dsl--when you turn on laptop--the dsl terminal searches for your isp---and that is the one they will always look for--when the airport is hooked up to dsl--it is has its own isp--and that is the one the dsl is looking for-so you cant do both--its too confusing--but if the linksys works why connect dsl to laptop ever ? > ---------- > From: Joe Sleeper > Reply To: G-Books > Sent: Tuesday, February 24, 2004 3:37 PM > To: G-Books > Subject: Re: iBook and Airport > > On Feb 24, 2004, at 3:23 PM, Seeker wrote: > > > Just joined the list.
