Just wanted to know. I have ordered a Netgear WGR604 802.11g wireless 4-port router (will toss the SMC Barricade where it belongs (not a very useful unit)).

The Netgear WGR614 is very inexpensive by Aust standards.

Then I can drop the temp MS sharing stuff. I guess they have hard coded this use of 192.168.0.1. It causes mayhem with a lot of other software. For what I wanted though, it has done the job.

Biggest issue for me was that wife has become dependant on Internet access using her Apple iBook with Airport card. With my temp cable solution I was able to hook her iBook up using its utp port & so she was able to do her work.

Am still impressed with OSX & how simple they made the networking compared to OS 9.x.

Tks
