I'm a Mac rookie, and this one has me stumped.
My house is wired for ethernet. The modem is in the basement and i have a Netgear Desktop Switch F105 distributing internet to the rest of the house. I connect a Airport Extreme Base Station directly to one of the wall outlets on a different floor and I all I get from the AEBS is "invalid IP address." When I connect the laptop directed to the sam wall outlet, I have no connection problems at all.
I changed to bridge mode, but that didn't help. What the is the problem here?
