Hi Brian As I do this on a fairly regular basis as The network at (GMUG) monthly meetings run this way Let you know of some of the problems that I have experienced while running Internet sharing
In the airport menu bar I am guessing your icon looks like this < http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/2527/picture2xx.png> If not you will need to go back to Sharing. Sure that the box next to Internet Sharing Is checked <http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/515/picture1yh.png> Also sometimes turning this Off then on again can fix some problems Next you could try going to go system preferences --> networking On your laptop and make sure the IP address in the AirPort Section Starts with "10." As I have seen some computers connect to the network perfectly fine but have been assigned the wrong IP address On the iMac you may also want to try finders preferences You want to go general Then turn on connected servers Then go to the sidebar tab and turn on all the options under sharing shared <http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/7216/picture2ztf.png> <http://img33.imageshack.us/img33/8990/picture3nf.png> -- Regards Kyle ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kyle Kreusch - Webmaster, (GMUG) Ambassador This e-mail was Dictated Using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 9 (GMUG) - Geraldton Macintosh User Group Website: <http://www.gmug.org.au/> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml> Guidelines - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml> Unsubscribe - <mailto:wamug-unsubscr...@wamug.org.au>
