[QUOTE="muso, post: 23887, member: 40"] Well maybe somebody else who uses airport can give you a more accurate answer, but this is how I connect two computers with a crossover cable when they don't connect automatically: Check personal filesharing is on in sharing > system prefs It will display a message along the lines of 'Other computers can connect to your computer with the ip address 169.x.x.x' when you have the personal filesharing option selected. Press apple-k and type that ip address in. [/QUOTE]
