[QUOTE="SuperDan, post: 1408595, member: 252591"] Well, I have given up configuring the Airport Snow. I was able to connect to it using someone elses older machine and an ethernet cable with a hard factory reset, but it was intermittant. According to the info I have you get 5 minutes to configure the device after a hard reset. I always got an error when trying to read the configuration. Also, it only showed up less than half the time after the hard reset. I conclude there must be a hardware failure. So...I went a bought an Airport Extreme. Setup and configuration were simple and quick. Signal strength is great, noise low and interference minimal. However, the internet connection is so slow as to be almost unusable. When I plug in my DSL directly to the computer everything is fine. When using the Extreme, not so much. Hardware iMac, Airport Extreme Base Station, At&T DSL with Siemens Speedstream 4100 modem.
