Hi All,
my daughter has come home with a free MacBook from school (they've all been given one - can you believe that!)
I'm totally UNfamiliar with Mac OSX, so am having great difficult connecting it to the internet via our little wireless router.
I have the following information at the ready.
I know our wireless network name.
I also know that I've used WEP 128bit Ascii security, and I have the encryption key ready and available.
And that's about it!
Anyway, I really want to get it connected but my Network Preferences screen keeps telling me that either .......
"no IP address is allocated, so it can't connect to the internet",
or....
"the airport has an allocated IP of 169.254.35.111 and can't connect to the internet".
Can anyone offer any really simple instructions as to how I might fix this please?
Any and all assistance is welcome and greatly appreciated.
