I have described this problem before in this newsgroup, but it is
still baffling me: I have two G4s which each has an Air****t Extreme
card fitted. Both suffer from the same problem, tho' the one, an iBook
far more than the other, an aluminium Powerbool. The problem is that
when started up, the don'r receive an IP address from my Netgear
wireless modem router, and so self-assign one which means I can't get
onto the net. Now the iBook does this far more than the Powerbook and
is, in fact doing so right at this moment. Both were fired up at the
same time, the Powerbook gets an IP address and connects to the net,
the iBook doesn't. Why not? Before it has been suggested that there
was something wrong with the Netgear wireless modem, but that can't be
the case. Both laptops as sitting side by side as I write, one
connected one not. Please, someone help me out. PP
