Hello I am trying to connect my airport express (pre-N) to my current wireless network and it is not working. I have a couple things working against me I think. Here's the story. I have a Belkin wireless router in my current apartment and the only way I can get my Iphone to connect to it is to turn off all security (I can't get WEP or WPA to connect on the phone... another problem for another time) I don't have anyone around me so I'm not super worried about the open network. I am moving soon and would like to add some sort of security and it would be nice to use the wireless printing of the airport again. I have tried turning off the wireless connection on the Belkin router but that didn't help. The other issue I have is that my Mac Pro doesn't have wireless installed. I have it connected now to the airport through the second network port. I can see the airport fine that way but when I try to configure the airport to connect to my current network it doesn't see an existing wireless network. when I try to set it up as it's own network it won't show up in the Airport setup utility after it restarts. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks
Jason
