OK, I've got the 192.168.0.xxx address, assigned by DHCP server through airport, but I am still unable to get onto AIM, or access any websites. I told the router to allow remote management through port 80 but I cannot log in through 192.168.0.1 over airport, yet it works fine on my G4 and Pentium 4 (which I am on now). Any suggestions?
