Airport hijacking PC IP address (or something like that)

I have a G5 (running Tiger), iMac (running Tiger), PC (running XP) and a Snow Airport hooked up to a Router (XSense MIH-120 xRouter) which is in turn connected to my Residential Comcast Modem which is hooked up to their system and then the web.
All three computers are set up to get their IP's via DHCP which both Mac's do fine, but whenever I have the Airport turned on the PC is unable to access the internet.
It's as if the Airport is somehow hijacking the PC's IP address.
When I turn the Airport off and reset the PC it connects no problem. Turn the Airport back on and the PC loses connectivity again.
With the Airport disconnected I go into the Routers admin and set the starting IP's to 24 or whatever - to make sure everything is getting new numbers, and again the Mac's and the PC get their respective new numbers. I turn the Airport back on and the PC loses connectivity again.
Any ideas??
BTW I have the Airport to connect to yet another iMac in another room, but that's not part of the equation because it's off half the time, so the problem stops at the Airport which is also password protected.

I took your advice and disabled the internal router and now that it's working as a bridge between the iMac and the router things seem to be working fine. I haven't turned the PC on yet so I'm not sure if this will screw things up like it was before.
I don't think so though, because after performing a hard reset and following Apple's step-by-step instructions http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106685 I had to type in specific IP information into the corresponding fields to access the ABS.
Before, when I accessed the ABS to set it up I connected to it straight away after hooking up the ethernet cable.
So now, at least, I have the latest software in the ABS and the router disabled, so time to fire up the PC.....

Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

Hello there philp_69,
If I understand correctly it sounds like your phone hasnt been recognized in iTunes on your PC since the last couple of updates. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article which will walk you through the steps one by one.

I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my documents

I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

I ran a virus/trojan fix and this is what it said it could not repair something in the main library core or something like that. What do I do? The problem seems to be with safari?

I have not seen a solution for error (1)
make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Hi everybody, my Macbook air mid 2012 MD 231 suddenly shut down then i can not turn it on. I heard a sound like a fuse is blown or something like that. Did any system break or burnt? I did not charge at that moment. Plz help

my Macbook air mid 2012 suddenly turn off after a strange sound (like the sound òf a fuse has blown or something like that) and I also feel a burnt smell too while i am watching a film on the internet and did not charge the laptop at this moment. The sound was from the left of it, and now just a dark screen , even I tried charging it (still has green light at the charge tool). I bought it on 13st April 2013, not often use.
I love apple and i am so sad that a new product which i seldom use could be break so easily and outstanding. It's so late in my country now but i am too disappoint about the trouble so i am writing with hope of supporting from Apple and the community.
Please help , thank bro

You will have to take it to an Apple Store for repair.

Yes. You can set the payment method to "None" once you log into iTunes on your PC/Mac. I have it set up this way.

I updated my iPod touch 4th generation from the latest iOS 4 update (i think maybe iOS 4.3.5 or something like that) to iOS 5.1.1 and my Photos, Videos, contacts, music, App data, etc. was deleted. How can I all the data back?

I updated my iPod touch 4th generation from the latest iOS 4 update (i think maybe iOS 4.3.5 or something like that) to iOS 5.1.1. I updated to iOS 5.1.1 on a Windows XP Home Edition with the Service Pack 3 installed on the Windows XP (which I believe is the latest version). After updating, I unplugged my iPod from the computer. I saw that all my photos and videos were on my iPod, but there were no apps. A window popped up and told me to enter a passcode for my iPod. I entered a passcode. I then locked my iPod and entered what I thought to be the correct passcode, but my iPod remained unlocked. Desperate, I tried many passcodes with failure. After a while, my iPod became disabled for a long time. I decided to reset my iPod. After I reseted it, I chose to reset from my earlier back up. After reseting, my computer loaded on all my apps. But, when I started using my iPod, I realized all my photos, videos, music, app data (like game saves and high scores), etc. were gone! I have no idea what to do and I am very stressed about this! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME GET ALL MY STUFF BACK!!!!!!

Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.

I recently upgraded to Yosemite. Yesterday when I opened up the iPhoto (which I have it in my external drive due to the size of file) I get the message that it is not compatible with the new system(or something like that) and ask me to upgrade so I did. Then another message pops ups and asked for rebuilding the Thumbnails. So I clicked rebuild. Next it asked me to do one of three things(I can't remember all of them) so I chose the last one which is to download a photo to iPhoto. Now I only have that photo I downloaded in iPhoto file but not the rest of my pictures. The iPhoto library which is stored in my EHD shows it has 349GB but it only show one thumbnail of the last picture I downloaded after the rebuild process. What can I do to recover the rest of the file?
Thanks for your help.

I'm not a US Citizen, can I get paid by apple using an US account? (Is necessary to provide any tax number or something like that?)

Hi! I'm from Argentina (I mean, I'm not an US Citizen), I have an account in a US bank. I would like to receive my payments there because I want to receive my payments in US dollars (the banks from my country will possible convert the currency to argentinian pesos and I don't want that). Can I do that or do I need to provide some number only US citizens have to pay some taxes or something like that? I registered one year ago as an apple developer and I remember there was a number I didn't have so I needed to follow another procedure to register as an apple developer from Argentina.
Thank you very much!

So far, the best anyone has been able to gather, you must be a current AT&T customer in good standing to qualify for unlocking. If you are not an active AT&T customer, they will not unlock your phone. This is in line with the policies of other carriers around the world who offer unlocking.
The unlock is acheived by restoring the phone in iTunes. If you have jailbroken your phone, the restore may well brick your phone entirely.
