hi, I've spent hours trying to set up my wireless from my macbook. I've spent at least 2 hours on the phone to Apple - they say there's a setting not right on my modem (Netgear), but i'm not convinced. My problem is this - using my AX, I get a full strength signal on my macbook, can see other networks in my neighbourhood, and can use Airtunes no problem. But, I cannot connect to the internet, despite a solid green light on the AX. I only get internet when i plug directly into my modem with ethernet. When I use firefox, it doesn't immediately flick to a "can't find server" message, but searches and searches and searches, which says to me that its some type of IP addressing issue? Apple says that its a bridging issue - I'm not too sure what this means, but I've been through the netgear manual, and I think the settings for the modem are correct for ADSL (ie PPPoA, right?) The non-default modification I've made to the AX is that I need to manually set the channel to 10 due to a large number of local networks - this shoudn'tbe a problem tho, right?
