im using 2 macs on my network, 1 of which is running XP via Bootcamp.
all the computers are wirelessly connected to the AEBS.

I connected a Fat32 drive to the AEBS and the mac running 10.5.4 sees it, and my mac with XP does not (even though Tiger/Leopard on this machine see it); XP does not see the drive and when i goto:

Start > AirPort > AirPort Utility
It says it cannot find an AirPort device and asks to rescan; EVEN though I'm connected to the internet via this very base station.


I have upgraded to the latest AEBSn firmware and AirPort Utility versions.
It used to work flawlessly a few months ago.

is there any remedy or fixes for this; and as an FYI i have done power cycling of all machines and devices. and this is the same drive that worked on there before and all the other macs can see and access the airdisk and airport utility.


thanks:)
 
Visuals of what im experiencing; its not the drive itself, something to do with either the AEBSn or the AirPort Utility:
