I have a 17` pb . i made an internet connection using PPPoE..... when i connect my cable directly the customer service told me to do the following; make a new location for network/ then in TCP/IP ip adress- 10.0.0.2 then subnet- 255.255.255.0 then router 10.0.0.38 in PPPoE section i have to put user name and password. well thats works fine.
the problem is when i connect my airport extreme i need to connect the cable to the WAN connection and then i need to put the details but i dont know how to do it!!! where should i put all the above? and where is the user name and password goes? anyway my powerbook is connected to the airport but there is no internet connection/
please can anyone help me????? please... i`ve been trying everything for a week already///

Liav,
I had the same problem and just got it fixed last night. Here's what I have learned so far in dealing with this issue.
First, Duane's configuration tips are essential (Duane, you are my hero!). I don't know why this info doesn't come with the AEBS or why the guys at the "Genius Bar" don't know this.
Second, there's probably a cabling issue. My BellSouth DSL uses a fiber optic connection which goes from the wall to the computer (no DSL modem in between). This is essentially a hub. Just like you, Liav, I was getting the eternal "Looking for PPPoE Host" and no connection. The BellSouth tech guy finally figured it out. The connection between the wall-mounted hub and the WAN port of the AEBS needs to be a CROSSOVER cable, not an Ethernet cable (but you should have an Ethernet cable between the LAN port and any hardwired computer).
While I was talking with the tech guy I replaced the Ethernet cable between the wall and the AEBS with a crossover cable, and WHAM! I got an instant connection, powerful all over the house and on 2 floors at the lowest (automatic) transfer rate setting, no channel changes, nothing fancy. I'd be willing to bet that this might also solve some slow transfer rate problems in other setups as well.
Change to a crossover cable, do a hard reset on your AEBS and set it up as per Duane's instructions and I predict you will have no further problems.

    This is bloody ridiculous. You want somebody to do your work for you, you can't be bothered to carry on a discussion here and ask for private email, and you expect somebody else to make your urgency (i.e. lousy time management) their problem. You got big brass ones, kid.

    If you're trying to connect to a Bonjour server on the remote network, that won't work over a layer 3 VPN. Use something like Hamachi or one of the SSH-tunnelling Bonjour proxy apps for that.

    Hi,
    I have an iTouch. I'd like to download some free apps. but I have a debit card but would like to download apps from the store. how do I do that? I can't possibly get a credit card just for this. please help.

    I really do not think it is the iPad or your network connection. Other users have reported this very same issue. Try this and see if it works for you - it may not work - but it's easy to try - harmless - and it has worked in the past for others.
    Try signing out of your account and restart your iPad.
    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>Store> Apple ID and sign in again.

    If you followed the instructions in the support article exactly (leaving the machine off for two minutes), then it has a hardware fault. Take it to an Apple Store or other authorized service provider for repair.
