I now have my 12 and 17 alBooks surfing using the modem in the exABS and while reading my mail on one I can use Safari on the other. NOTE: if you can't get the modem to work, check your Keychain application and verify your password for your dialup account... :) Now my project is to network the two pbs so I can swap files, etc. It took a while but I did this with Ethernet. Yahoo, I finally networked. Checking the Personal File Sharing was required even though I had the firewall turned off. Now I can swap files. Databackup worked via Airport synchronizing the Filemaker files folders on the two books. The only problem remaining is networking the Filemaker files as client/host. For some reason the hosts button doesn't find the open files on the 12. --- <http://www.billionairesforbush.com/index.html>
