Problems Connecting Macbook to PC's Wireless Signal
Hi,
First of all, thanks for reading. I just received my MacBook today and am trying to connect it to my PC's wireless signal. The wireless is transmitting from my Asus PW5 Deluxe motherboard on the PC. The MacBook is aware of the connection and when I type in the WPA password, it has no trouble connecting. However, I am unable to perform ANY tasks over the internet. I have five bars on the airport icon but there is otherwise no evidence of a successful connection. I formerly had a Mac Mini and was able to connect to the wireless for a while. Then, one day, the exact same probably began to occur with the Mini. My brother has a Windows laptop and has no trouble connecting and utilizing the connection.
EDIT: It appears that turning off all forms of connection security, allows me to connect. I'm going to pursue this on my own.
Thank you,
Matt
