Windows 7 with latest AirPort Extreme
I have just bought the latest AirPort Extreme. Set-up using airport utility on all my apple products worked like a charm. I then installed airport utility and updated it in my old windows 7 laptop.
- airport utility on windows 7 cannot detect the wifi network
- windows 7 can however see the wifi network when I go to network properties, but it cannot connect to it
- I tried shifting the AirPort Extreme from WPA 2 to no security, and windows 7 still cannot connect nor is airport utility finding the network
- I tried changing the channel on the AirPort Extreme to channel 11, still nothing
My old laptop on windows 7 has a b/g wireless card. I am afraid the AirPort Extreme is not compatible with b/g, or if it is, do I have to set it to it, and if so where?
Any other tips as to what I could change in the settings of the AirPort Extreme or windows 7 to either have airport utility see and connect to the network, or connect through windows 7 network properties?
Thanks
