using wmwifirouter with os x

I'm trying to use wmwifirouter (wmwifirouter.com) with os x, and wmwifirouter itself seems to work (says 'connected'), but I am having problems connecting to it from the mac. I see the wmwifirouter listed under "Devices" in the networking menu (rather than as a network). When I connect to the wmwifirouter as a device, I have no internet connection through the mac.

A message in network preferences indicates that "Airport is using a self-assigned IP address and may not have access to the internet" when I connect to wmwifirouter, whereas when I connect to my regular router, this message says "Airport is connected to routername and has the IP address 192.168.2.3."

I am using the most recent version of wmwifirouter, 1.10, with all settings at default. Is there some way to get wmwifi to work as a regular network so that it assigns an IP address to my mac? the settings suggest it should be doing this already.

 

no I gave up in despair

you might want to try ppcgeeks.com though

 

if your mother had bothered not to drink herself to sleep every night during your gestation, you would realize that one way to find out whether modifications are required for any specific model is to post on a forum, which is generally more useful as a source of advice than as a medium for hamfisted sniping.
