[QUOTE="Faqua, post: 1888678, member: 408357"] Something weird is going on. After doing the failed test with connecting the AE directly to the ethernet wall hub I thought I'd try to move the AE into the office (spare bedroom) and see if it could wirelessly connect to the CL. That didn't work either. Then I started fiddling around with the AE controls, the network controls, the CL controls, etc. to maybe get a connection that way. I've done so much fiddling that I couldn't begin to explain it all (the little gray cells were smoldering). The end result is that the AE is still in the office, amber light blinking. But look AE shows! What netspot shows! I'm CL1062 and John's WIFI Network. And look what speedtest shows! CL even has a "Mac Authentication" page I tried without any luck! I've been at this all day (except for my afternoon libations, of course) and I cannot understand a thing! Why shouldn't I be able to connect the AE WIRELESSLY to the CL from the office and, why can't I shut down the router end of the CL to make that happen??
