Does anyone recall how to configure a wireless connection that is running through my apple router (Time Capsule). My hard drive crashed and I do not recall how I set it up. If someone could provide a step instruction, it would be appreciated!

I am running a laptop with windows XP home.

Thanks :pfff:

Given my vile experiences when trying to connect Apple computers to non-Apple routers you'd have to be an "enthusiast" to choose to use a (presumably old) Apple router with Windows.

Most of the issues are to do with terminology differences between Win and Apple -- plus the fact that Apple were still running WEP long after the industry went to WPA.

Otherwise, so long as you can remember how to log in to the router's user interface (download a manual from Apple?) and disable all wireless security until you get a reliable connection you may be okay.
