[Ti] Wireless Network

[Kim Gammelgård]

Hi Sam,

I just set up an Airport Express for a friend of mine with a Cable 
modem. His cable company (stofanet.dk) has some setup, where you need 
to go to their web page to log on before you are online, and I was not 
able to transfer that setting to the AE.

But apart from that minor inconvenience - especially that if I am 
around with my PB,  he needs to login before I can surf - it works as 
expected. But in all I prefer my ADSL with PPPOE, where the connection 
is maintained by my router.

HIH,

Kim
