Hi,
I recently bought a iMac 17" with a Dual Core 2.0ghz processor. I also purchased a Netgear WRT54GS router with SpeedBooster.
The router is setup on my roommates computer which runs XP exclusively. For the first week or so the internet was running fine through the Airport on both Mac OSX 10.4 and Windows XP (via Bootcamp install) on my imac.
However, after a problem with the internet from my ISP the internet stopped working on Mac OSX, but it contnued to run on Windows XP.
I still have this problem, here are some more details:
I can connect to the router in the usual way from Mac OSX, selecting it from the airports router list. I can even get into the routers setting page through the 192.168.1.1 URL. However, I cannot get a connection to the internet. When I open Safari of Firefox I get a cannot connect message. I have reset the modem, tried the trouble shooting wizard and connected using the ethernet, but with no success.
For some reason the router will not give Mac OSX access out to the internet.
I have also tried entering my settings manually in the Network page of the System preferences page.
Any feedback would be appreciated as I am running out of patience and hard disk space with Windows.
