[QUOTE="g725s, post: 1235231, member: 117420"] Ok I found an option that might work for me. What I'm wanting to do is let only a Mac Mini use the Airport Extreme wireless router. So I found an option in the Airport Utility and it states: [COLOR="Blue"]"Choose Local (available on some models the AirPort Base Station), Timed Access, or RADIUS from the MAC Address Access Control pop-up menu, depending on the wireless device you’re setting up. • If you choose Local, click the Add (+) button and enter the AirPort ID or Wireless MAC address for the client you want to access the network, and then click This Computer to add the AirPort ID of the computer you’re using. Use the Description field to enter the name of the computer in the list."[/COLOR] So I would guess now that I need to find the wireless MAC address or Airport ID for my Mac Mini and set it up to use this Local feature. Where would I find either the MAC address or Airport ID? [/QUOTE]
