After a lot of persuading I convinced my friend to buy an iMac (G5 10.4.11) for his son. He has ATT Yahoo DSL service and a PC. I gave him my old Airport Extreme Base Station (UFO) so his son could use the iMac wirelessly. When the PC is connected to the modem he gets internet. When the Airport is put in the loop and the setup assistant is run he gets no internet. The iMac gets a strong wireless signal but no internet. The AEBS does not seem to get an ip address but the iMac gets a distributed 10.x.x.x address from the AEBS. I searched the problem when I got home and came up with a lot of conflicting and confusing advice. Do you use bridge mode or not with this setup? How should PPPoE be set up? Does the modem handle the PPPoE or does the AEBS? This is a lot more complicated than hooking up wireless to my cable modem. Any advice or step by step instructions welcome. Thanks in advance.
