[QUOTE="Collin Bl, post: 863379, member: 95994"] If you are on ADSL then the first unit connected to wall jack should be handing out the DHCP addresess. Set the AE to bridge mode using Airport Utility if on Leopard or Airport Set Up assistant on Tiger. Then go into Sys Prefs on both computers and enter your ISPs DNS numbers in the Network settings - put them into the airport and ethernet selections then u dont have to worry which method you are using to connect. If you are out and about with the MacBook then use automatic for Location while roaming but set up a Location for home with your ISPs settings, use that at home -see Apple menu - and it should run smoothly.
