Hi Mark: Thanks for the suggestions/questions. Actually, yes, I finally got it working by doing a reset, turning Airport off, removing my neighbor's unsecured network from the choices, and turning airport back on. It's still pretty quirky, (we had to reset again this afternoon). And I can't get the network control group to save the changes when I try to rename the network to something other the the infamous "myqwest." But, yes. For the moment, it's working. (Man, it's hard to type with one's fingers crossed.:)
