laugh.gif you can do the reverse.
connect your only lan to your macbook pro, in your mbp enable internet sharing via Airport. Connect the rest of the computer to your mbp's airport network.

hrmm......... my macbook is the core duo version, on 10.4.8 as well.

no problem with my WPA encrypted WiFi signal. biggrin.gif

Issue or symptom
After upgrading to Mac OS X 10.4.8, some Intel-based computers may not auto-connect to remembered networks that use WPA2 or WEP security. This article explains how to correct this behavior.

didn't mention WPA though, but sinec WPA is between WEP and WPA2 so i guess it's included. tongue.gif

the latest AirPort update, it is suppost to help in connecting with the airport extreme or something. before that there was another update which allowed me to connect to my router.

i have another question, since the update allows mac to connect. what about in windows mode? i cant connect.

Updating to Boot Camp 1.2 beta
If you previously installed Boot Camp beta, you can easily update to Boot Camp 1.2 beta. You don't need to partition your hard drive again (unless you want to change its size) or reinstall your Macintosh and Windows software or documents, but it's very important to update the Boot Camp Assistant software, create a new Mac Drivers CD and install the updated software it contains onto Windows. Complete instructions are provided in the Installation and Setup Guide included with the Boot Camp 1.2 beta software.


use the search function my fren.
