i don't think the problem are on your Macbook airport setting.

try to set your router security to WPA, give it a password, save it and re-try to connect on your macbook. If you have a good reason to stick with WEP, pls set a password and try it.

Did you create a close network on your wifi router? what router are you using?

You might want to read this, before rejecting my suggestion. iBook is not a Macbook Pro, the construciton is totally different. Mind you, the Airport card is different too. There's no harm changing your router's setting. You can always backup your previous setting.

Also, you might want to read this & this.

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.

QUOTE
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.
