    having issues' setting up my 2wire and macbook to read the network and login. If someone has similar setup, could you let me know how they got their mac to pick up the wireless signal and connect. I can connect physically and all fine and dandy, but for some reason not sure what settings have to be configured on the router itself to establish a wireless connection between the router and my mac. Any pointers in the right direction would be great.

    Do you've the Appletalk protocol enabled? If you do try disabling it and see if that works.

    On the last 2wire I worked on the key (def) was a number on the bottom of the router. You are better logging in to the router and setting the wireless up with WPA and your passphrase (TKIP). Once done it should work like any other wireless AP.
