Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

D'oh! My reset linksys wasn't locked down enough and screwed up the school network. I am in trouble. Luckily the IT guy is being really nice about it, but I feel like a twit.
I decided to splurge on myself yesterday and got the upgrade to leopard, and airport base and airport card at the mac store yesterday.
I updated my OS, but then I was sleepy and so didn't really understand how to set up the airport. Do I just put the card in, plug the airport into my modem and go? Is it as simple as I think it is? I'm tired of being tethered to my desk!
That's how I remember it, Allyson. Crazy easy. Loves the macs!
Thanks! I ran into Kristin when I went out to buy myself something in a fit of retail therapy, and she inspired a visit to the apple store.
Do you have to install some special program to configure the Airport Base? I had to for my Time Capsule. But once I did that, it was absurdly simple to set up.

It comes with Leopard.
Yeah, I noticed when I was updating to the new OS that it had some sort of airport thingy. Does it mean I can return the card?

Nope. The card is the hardware part for the laptop. The software that you noticed is (probably) for configuring the airport base station.
I don't think any configuration is required for the airport card on the laptop, btw.
