I did the push button momentary, push button extended, and software resets. All for naught.

Sorry if I've made you repeat yourself to no purpose, I'm being a conduit for the DH's ideas and I don't necessarily know what he means. He now agrees that your router is, to put it technically, "probably fucked". Sorry, dude.

lol. Ya, I was suspecting. Especially as I wrote it out here more and more. But not being an IT person, per se, I was hoping there was something I could tinker with.

So I guess the question now is. Airport or Time Capsule? Of course I have money for neither, so it's a down the road question. But, has anyone using time capsule found it all that much better than just hooking up a HD to the Airport? And will Timecapsule work with 10.4.11 or will I have to jump to the next cat level?

Why do you prefer XP Pro? I haven't found much difference between them.

No reason, Jon. I have install disks for both. Though I believe the license key I have for XP Home is also already in use. I still think I have an unused Pro key lying around somewhere, and I guess I'm just trying to put forth a good faith effort to be completely legit about it.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Yes, this. If the licenses I have match the number of installs, I've tried, at least.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Of course, you're trying to do right by a company that gave a big "fuck you" today to everybody who purchased music though Microsoft's music store. [link]
