Hey,
I'm trying to connect my iMac G5 (Tiger) with a wireless network to my Windows XP (Home) PC.
I bought a D-Link wireless 802.11g router and have contected my Broadband modem to it. I have a Gigabyte WiFi card in my PC.
The PC is using the internet perfectly (wirelessly) via the router-modem connection.
My iMac has an Airport Extreme card installed. I've lost lots of hair tonight trying to set it up =:(
So my Airport Extreme iMac has to connect to my router network. I've set up a small home or office network on my PC but there's no sign on my iMac that it is actually detecting any router. So how do I set up my iMac to detect the (non-airport) router?
The iMac is about 15 metres (and two walls) from the PC (right next to the router).
Help!!!

Thanks
Will
 
Try the network configuration utility on the iMac that seems to work just fine. Make sure you have the router set up right also.
