[QUOTE="killedbyinterne, post: 462366, member: 32606"] I'm trying to get my PC to recognize my Airport Extreme. I connected the AirPort Extreme directly to the cable modem and the Airport utility software is up to date. I open Airport Utility and it can't discover the AirPort Extreme base station. It says "Airport Utility was unable to find any AirPort base stations. Please make sure the AirPort base station you want to set up is plugged in and in range of your computer, and then click rescan to try again." I've made sure that everything is plugged in correctly. The ethernet cord isn't broken as it is plugged in to my PC right now to access the internet. What am I doing wrong? I thought that maybe my PC isn't capable of receiving a wireless signal since its around three years old (Dell Dimension 4600). How do I make sure that my PC is capable of receiving wireless signal? If it isn't then do I just have to purchase a wireless card and install it? Any help is appreciated! [/QUOTE]
