Unable to connect to Airport Extreme Base Station via Virgin Media modem
I am at a bit of a loss, have just spent half hour on phone to friend who knows a fair amount about macs but couldn't shed any light.
I had Virgin Media installed on the weekend, I can connect to the internet directly from modem to ibook with ethernet cable but cannot connect via airport, went into airport setup utility and it cannot find my airport even though the airport is flashing away and the ethernet light is on constant on the Virgin Media modem.
Even more perplexing I am currently on the internet wirelessly via a network with the name Netgear (I am guessing that I am piggy backing off of someone else's unsecure wireless network) the other network choice that comes up is homelan which I am guessing is my airport (how can I tell), how can I check and can anyone help either on here or via email contactcarolinej@yahoo.co.uk
Many thanks
