Hi,
I am connecting my MBP to the internet via a USB Netstick.
At the same time, I am using the built in AirPort extreme to host a WiFi network to use with my iPhone and other laptops.
When I try to connect my Kindle to the wireless network, it fails to connect.
I am pretty sure the 3rd generation Kindle does not support 802.11n .
How can I force the PHY mode of the hosted network to be 802.11g? (I know the speed will be reduced)
Thanks a lot for the help,
Kfir
