We have some PCs, but the kids and the boss want to use Macs - something about 'they just work'. :D

 

Been sending emails back and forth with tech support and i'm left with the impression that i'll be sending the aerial back next week. :/

Have you tried turning it off and walking away?

For now i'm leaving it turned on (nJ) and moving on to the next problem at a leisurely pace until 5pm. I'll return on Monday either refreshed with new ideas or ready to chuck the the towel in and admit we'll have to get different gear.

It's being sent back.
Managed to do the same thing using a wireless-n router placed in the nearest office.

 

Emails went back and forth to the manufacturer and they haven't responded to the last one I sent giving them info they wanted.
Did manage to get one Mac on by turning off Airport and installing a usb wireless dongle but we couldn't do that for everyone.

 

Using the wireless-n router will work out cheaper too - just would have been cool to have the outdoor point. :(
