airport card not responding in Clamshell - 2006/07/09 01:19
My granddaughter has opened a can of worms !
I bought this clamshell back in 2005 somewhere, tried to get it to connect to DSL, couldn't, put it back in the case it came in and put it under my bed, until this afternoon my granddaughter decides she would like to see if she could get the airport card that's installed in it to work, of course this doesn't work either. I really don't know how to get this thing to work, I've almost given up. Right now it's sitting next to my desktop iMac., & it's on I have a DSL connection only for the iMac, but it seems I can't have 2 computers on the same DSL connection, with out them ( my telephone company ) charging me for another hook-up, I think it stinks, because I hear that there is no charge for another hook-up with other companies, I'm going to look into this on Monday. I notice that the menu bar has the airport icon up there and when I click on it, it says " turn airport on ", which when I do, does absolutely nothing., I know from what my granddaughter tells me is that it should work with the number that's printed on the DSL box, in other words - communicating with it. I don't have a base station, and frankly wouldn't know if it would take the Original or the Extreme.
Their is another persons name in this iBook and I can't change it for the LIFE of me- this is JUST 1 of the reasons I've just about given up, it's a very well taken care of unit, in fact it's Pristine, cosmetically it's gorgeous, but It AIN'T workin' !, I need some expertise Please !
