Dear Forum Visitors,
I'm having problems getting my Apple Airport installed. First let me tell you what kind of hardware I use my airport with:
- Laptop (Windows 98)
- ORiNOCO Wireless Silver card
- Apple Airport
My ORiNOCO card already was setup to obtain an ip adress automatically, so when my airport came out of the box and booted up, my card got a connection with the base station (I already set the name of the network to "ANY").
When I started freebase it saw the Airport immediately. Till now everything went fine. I could also login with the password "public" and change the settings. Now here comes the problem: I know I changed some settings but I can't remember wich ones. I can't get freebase to see my Airport now. It scans and scans but doesn't see anything. Also I don't know the IP address of the Airport (Maybe I changed the IP address or deleted it from the settings?). My Orinoco card still sees the Network named "Neyndorff" and get's an "excellent connection".
I pinged my laptop and I'm getting an ip address from the airport. It's: 169.254.2.114
I also know that when I started freebase for the first time it asked me for the last numbers of the ip address to assign to the airport. I typed 60 (so the ip becamse 10.0.?.60. Sorry, can't remember what the ? was.. I think it was 1).
I tried rebootting the Airport several times but this doesn't help.
If anyone can help me with this problem I will be very thankful!
Thank you.
