Yep, that would have been great being all together!
I came back home and gave it a try with my own ABS. Just before trying, I
went over the settings and then I noticed "Use roaming" in the advanced
settings. I did turn it off and then tried to connect and it did work the
first time.
So, I'm not sure what that settings does and if it was the problem or if
Apple did something on their part. When I sent my previous email, I was
connected to their AirPort Base Station. I did notice that there were 2
networks: 1 named "Apple Store", the other "Apple <some number>". I didn't
try the latter, since the former did work, but I'm wondering what that was.
Anyway, now that I've got wireless working on my Newton, I'll be able to
test the same configuration the next time I go to an Apple store. We'll
see...
BTW, it's disappointing that I can't connect to NCU running in Classic under
OS X. Anybody else? I was also unable to see my Personal LaserWriter NTR,
bridged to my network through an AsanteTalk. Yes, my Wavelan card was set to
use AppleTalk, but I was unable to get any AppleTalk service. Is it broken
with the latest Wavelan driver?
