I have sent you a PM ... If we have no luck with that. I suggest starting a new thread in the Mac OSX section, but don't do that yet. Let's see how this idea goes first.

The link I gave above "did" once upon a time have instructions for airport configuring. But unfortunately the owner of the site decided to take it off a few weeks ago. In answer to my query why, he said he was just about to set up a mac & wanted to check the instructions for himself to verify them rather than the donated ones. But still, the link hasn't returned as fast as he suggested it would.

Default connection failure

Sorry but the fix didn't work on Mac OS 10.4.2

Things worked well until 2 days ago (11/14/05). ISP (SCPWildblue [satellite ISP]) sez they "don't support Limewire" but claim they haven't done anything differently! Since I posted this, I called and talked to a senior tech. They do NOT block or filter Limewire.

Here's the reason I asked. Limewire pro costs $18.88 and is only available from www.limewire.com. Basic Limewire is also available there at no charge. If you payed any other amount you have bought a scam version of Limewire, you cannot get support from Limewire, and it is quite possible that your version has been doctored in some way.

http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=28751 is a little bit of information about scam sites

I meant $18.88. LW acknowledges my email with a reply and I bought the software directly from their webpage. Plus, I used to have basic but I had broadband minus wireless router and that was about a year ago.
