Wireless networking is done according to international standards. NOTHING about basic wirless networking-or wired networking, for that matter-is platform dependent.

You have to set the Mac you want to use as a FTP server to a fixed local IP address. Set the Airport TCP/IP prefs in the G4 as follows: Connect Manully IP address = 192.168.0.20 G…

[Sorry, I misunderstood. To FTP to your ISP set your FTP client to Passive Mode (PASV). If you haven't tried it already, try RBrowser: http://www.rbrowser.com/download.html whic…

I'll address WEP later. First, how are you entering the password in your PowerBook? The "WEP password" is really a key, and for the entire rest of the industry defaults to hexade…

Ah, man, this sucks. Once your thread gets sent to the UNIX forum it's all over. It's the black hole of forums. It's really annoying when the mods do this. Asking a question abou…

Now that we're here, I guess. I've been playing around and I have made a little bit of progress. I fired up Apple Remote Desktop preferences and set it to allow VNC connections (I…

Well, I set mine up and it works fine. Your home machine (the one you want to tunnel to) needs to be set up with a fixed IP address and you need to port forward port 22 from the ro…

You don't need to connect the wifi ap directly to the cable modem. Just connect the APBS to a free port on your d-link, and disable nat/dhcp on the APBS. Should work out of the bo…

Pretty much what mduell said.

This is good news. Thanks. Anyone disagree with the above? How about the printer functionality? However, this may be moot if Citrix doesn't work. I just posted a question in …

By configuring your base station as mduell says, you turn it into an access point-it no longer does "router functions," but you already have a router and all you want is access poi…

Yes. By connecting the printer to the AirPort, and turning off DHCP and NAT (uncheck the "share a single IP address" box in the AirPort Admin Utility), you make the AirPort box si…
