I recently switched to Mac computers for the sole purpose of recording my music.Let me start off by saying, I have real limited working knowledge of networks ,but with the right instructions I could learn.
So here we go :
1st of all, all I really want to do is to be able to get on the internet with the mac, in case I should have a recording question or need to research a piece of gear,etc on the internet.
I bought an airport card and installed it in my "MDD G4" Power Mac, it has the OS X 10.4 operating system, it did recognize the airport card.I have had a wifi set up in my home on my wifes PC laptop with a netgear router in place for a while.
Iam trying to get the G4 on the wireless network,but its not working,I can hardwire it in with a ethernet cable and string it down the hallway into the back of the router and it works fine, but not wireless.
We (my wife and I) are not going to be transferring files or sharing printers or anything like that, I just need internet access,thats the only reason for the router is to be wireless from room to room.
What should I do ?
