[QUOTE="Nethfel, post: 830083, member: 89124"] Maybe I should have been more clear - the section that said "your-router-ip" was meant to be manually typed in by you replacing the words with the ip address of your router, so it would have been: [url]https://192.168.1.1[/url] Assuming that 192.168.1.1 is your router. DTravis also makes a very good point in that many wifi routers do disable access to the configuration server via wireless (and for that matter from the wan port as well). As he suggested, you will want to get an ethernet cable and connect the computer directly to the router. I don't know, but you may need to disable the Mac's wifi adapter when you hook in the ethernet. I'm not sure how OSX handles priority if both the wifi and the wired ethernet are connected for traffic - especially when they're connected to the same network. [/QUOTE]
