We've always used PC'S so this is a new territory for us. The manual doesn't seem to help in this situation. Anyone out there have one who could give us some advice? We have a wireless network in our house to connect to internet with a desktop and a laptop already. Is that even going to work with this Apple technology?

I have an iBook G4 and can connect to any wireless provider. I go to Finder (the smiley face at the bottom), then select "applications". Under applications, find and select "internet connect". Once at internet connect, go to airport and select "airport on". Then find your wireless provider under "network" and select. Hope this helps.

There should be a little fan shaped symbol in the bar at the top of the screen. You can click on that to enable wireless and see available networks. It doesn't have to be an airport. It will connect with anything.
You can also download the free Bootcamp from Apple and install XP along with OSX now.

Steps variety slightly with the version of working gadget... and you forgot to point which version you're utilizing. turn on the firewall. seek Mac help to work out how. substitute community putting at gadget decision > community. to realize default settings, make a clean "area" and delete the previous one. the hot area would be set for connecting to a router or different container that distributes IP addresses by skill of DHCP. For coming into PPPoE settings to connect directly to a DSL container (no router), use Mac help and seek for "coming into pppoe settings" No OS X viruses popular to be nevertheless interior the wild interior the previous ten years, and is the reason why scanning for them for 40 two months did no longer discover any. a pair of Trojan horses reported some years in the past, yet none lurking approximately those days. Safari is infamous for passing alongside monitoring cookies (Firefox with NoScript will avert this). Use MacScan to do away with monitoring cookies (ClamX would not try this). MacScan version 2.6 is loose, yet now no longer available formally, so seek and seek and seek some greater... or pay for version 2.7 or later.
