Airport Extreme Base Station w/Powerbook G4 Networking Problem

I just bought an Airport Extreme Base Station for my G4 Powerbook (which has an Airport Extreme card)to go wireless around the house. I have cable internet which is transmitted via an Ethernet cable from the modem into my G4 cube. I can't seem to get my two G4s to network properly...when I open Internet Explorer on my Powerbook it says, "cannot find server". Can someone please explain the proper set-up of the Airport Base Station with my computers, including the on-screen set up tutorial/configuration? Please help!
 
How exactly do you have the Base Station, modem and machines connected?

Modem to WAN port on Base Station - LAN port on Base to Cube?

I have 2 cables connectd to the (Airport) base station, Ethernet and LAN. The Ethernet cable is connected to the modem, and the LAN cable is connected to the G4 Cube.
 
Open the AirPort Setup Assistant, located in Applications/Utilities.
Select either "Set up your computer to join an existing AirPort network" or "Set up an AirPort Base Station" and follow the onscreen instructions.
