Airport question: I have an Airport Extreme that suddenly has started, instead of sharing the IP address across all computers (i.e. 10.0.x.x) is giving one computer the main IP address (70.45.x.x) and therefore not allowing any of the others to connect. I've tried all the obvious stuff (unplugging and waiting, hard reset, unplugging all other routers in the area, and so on)
Don't kill anyone if you don't have to. We're here to make a deal.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Have you tried running the airport utility?

All is well that ends in pizza.
It sound like it's been somehow set to "pass thru" mode.
# Open AirPort Admin Utility.
# Select the base station and click Configure, then click Network.
# Deselect the "Distribute IP addresses" checkbox.
# "Save" or "Apply", what ever it says.

does anyone know if i can make a folder have the files i add to it keep them in the order i added them? i know it does it if i have the folder open while i'm dling, but i want it to be that way until i change it. i'm using Windows Media Center edition if that matters at all...

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
You can sort a folder by date by clicking on the Date bar at the top of the file listing. You probably need to be in Details view (see my post to flea if you need instructions on doing that).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's not so much that the folder contents are ordered, just that you view them sorted by one thing or another. "The order added to the folder" isn't one of them unless you create or edit them as you add them.

Hey. New board.
Apple rumor that is making me over-excited: iPod Touch. Basically an iPhone, with a hard drive and, you know, no phone. But OS X based, presumably with the nice calendar and video playback and MAYBE (the part of the rumor that makes me silly with hope) WiFi. I would buy it in a second, and then trade my Treo for something tiny (or even switch to pay-as-you-go, though I'd have to look at text rules carefully).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've been waiting for ages for a new iPod to come out - ever since I filled up my 60 GB model.
What would the WiFi do? Internet radio? Wireless syncing? Exchanging music with iPods of others? Buying music directly from the iTunes store?

Hey. New board.
I was thinking more along the lines of "Run Safari"
Assuming it uses the iPhone OS, of course.
ETA: I would pay $500 instantly for a touchscreen iPod with the full iPhone software suite (iCal, Safari, etc), WiFi, and a 160GB HD. I might even pay $600. The bigger storage is worth more to me than the phone features.

Tom and Daniel, thank you. I did try the Airport Utility with no luck, and I am certain I had checked the "Distribute IP address" box, but I will go back and take a closer look tonight.
