[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 728879, member: 38864"] I can't imagine that doing anything more than using a secure password and suppressing the broadcasting of your device is necessary. It wouldn't hurt to set the MAC Address Access Control option to "local" and then just plug in the MAC address of your Mac. Beyond that, I think yer set. Oh yes... as far as NAT settings... if your Mac is the ONLY computer using the Airport, then set its IP address as the default host. You should probably set up your Mac to have a static IP address in that case also. As for DHCP... just leave those settings alone. Well actually.. again if only your Mac is going to be connecting, I suppose you could limit the DHCP range to one IP address (the one for your Mac). [/QUOTE]
