- Your Mac's Specs
- Late-2012MBP, Early-2009MBP 15"(new to me)iPad Air 64GB iPad Air 2 6
I have a Mac Mini which had a working Airport WiFi internal adapter. A couple weeks ago it decided to work intermittently, Took it to the Genius Bar at the closest Apple Store and they recommended replacing the Airport. My Mini's not new but I really wanted to find a simpler, more cost effective route.
My system specs are:
Model Name: Mac mini
Model Identifier: Macmini2,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 1.83 GHz
Number of Processors: 1
Total Number of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 2 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MM21.009A.B00
SMC Version (system): 1.19f2
Snow Leopard v 10.68
I purchased an AddLogix 802.11bgn Wireless Adapter N150 via Amazon and went through video supplied here: 802.11bgn Wireless Adapter N150
didn't appear to be too difficult to install
I was incorrect. Here's how I'm connected to the Net:
Cox.net Motorola SB5101 cable modem
Apple Air Port Extreme A1034
trying to wirelessly connect back to Airport Extreme is fine but unable to go to the Net.
I realize the IP address of the Airport is 10.0.1.1 which should be entered in the DNS Server section however, I'm not sure what IP address address I should use to connect to the Internet.
But I don't know what I'm doing wrong as I can connect to the Airport Extreme but not to the Internet. Something tells me I need a IP address that's provided by Cox which from what I can tell is a 68.x.x.x but not sure exactly what I need to enter.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
