Going Wireless With a 2WIRE451????!

[Steeler79Kid]

I have a yahoo/dsl modem the 2WIRE451, and I was wondering if I could go wireless with my Mac Mini. If there is any way that is possible please help me. The computer that is using the 2WIRE451 is a Windows XP.Thanks.

What exactly is my WEP. is that the password for the 2WIRE451 or the long code I received when setting up the wireless on the Windows XP computer.

 

[Steeler79Kid]

Yes thats it.

Yea, I have the same router from ATT. You should be able to just go into your network settings and pick up the router via your airport. I took the WEP off mine but here is what it looks like:

I guess make sure you have the correct WEP, you can find it on the bottom of the router as well as with the papers they gave you.
