Y'all lost me after "Congrats", all I know is I can read your posts so life is good!

What hotel did you stay in, Goldener Greif by chance?

VICTORY! Death to D-Link..............

Lake Cuomo was my choice but Al was quicker- Kitzbuhel Austria

Apple Airport Extreme- continuing my conversion to the Apple minions. Now perhaps I can connect our Touch, MacBook Pro and other gear to our wifi network since the crappy D-Link router has decided to go anal on us.

I beg to differ, lawyers who prefer ibuds or disco are the worst.

My new avatar!

So this information appears to imply for pc audio folks it is better to wait until 1Q 2010 or for me then it appears the Metric Halo/ Sonic Studios 302 may be the path to take for now.

Man, averaging 24 mph with the last section climbing to 1500 meters of elevation, that is smoking! It takes strong legs and a huge heart to grind out through the mountain stages like those guys are doing. The mountain stages are always some of the most exciting stages in the Tour.

Thanks for the offer Ken, I will let you know if there is a problem. Otherwise if you catch a local news interruption tomorrow of the Tour de France coverage involving a hostage taking situation in Westlake Village, you will probably know why.

Sure, I've heard that before. Then how bout I send them as an email attachement once the Macbook is on the innernets.

No Yak meat?

Then it is a done deal. Off to the Apple store tomorrow, then I will set fire to the crappy D-Link router at sundown. Thanks for the help, I owe you a 1985 dram or two or three. At RMAF.

Yeah but the Apple router will probably mess with the PCs and vista laptops on the wifi right? I just know it will.

....and D-Link sucks too. Isn't the D-link password a basic "admin" password? I reset the D-Link password because that is the password needed to access the wifi network. I can't connect our new Touch either so I suspect the issue is the same. If I get a WPA capable router then is it easy enough to set up even for a dumshit like me? If so, I am drop kicking this D-Link all the way to LA on Monday. OK, I am going to Best Buy tomorrow and buying a WPA capable router, now if I can only fix my dac problems. Thanks Dan for the Patience and responses.

I'm hosed................... Fucking Apple, if cdps and dacs were the same as these friggin' macbooks where each new piece of audio hardware added to your system meant reconfiguring your whole system before it could play music, we would still be listening to fucking eight track tapes.

Where is this option? When I choose the wifi network I wish to use, the next promt is WEP password as default, the other choices are WEP 40/128-bit hex, WEP 40/128-bit ASCII.

I turned off the router and modem many times with no results. I guess I need to clarify my interpretation of what the "airport" is to me. I use a D-Link wifi router for all the pcs and laptops in the house to connect to the internet. I am assuming, and maybe this is where I am going wrong, but I was assuming that the Macbook pro has a built in wireless card that will allow me to tap into any open wifi network. In my case I was assuming "airport" mean generic open wifi network. The Macbook Pro can see our wifi network and I highlight it and tell the Macbook that I wish to use this open network to gain access to the internet. The Macbook asks for a access password which I am assuming is the wireless routers password. Then it hangs up.

For the past two days I have been trying to connect our new Macbook Pro to the home wifi network. The mac can see the wifi and I select it for our connection. So far I have only been successful with - Airport green light Airport settings green light Network settings yellow light ISP etc red light The set up asks me if to restart the modem or wifi router, which I did then asks if the router or modem is connected and in line between the Mac and the router/modem. I tried both answers, yes and no, no luck. The setup also asks for a airport password which I am assuming is the network password for the wifi connection. It also asks for the WEP password which I am assuming is the same. Results NADA. Any suggestions?

I am doing today what I have been trying to do for the past few days which is remove the dac curse in my system and figure out how to have our new Apple gear shake hands with our home wifi. VERY ANNOYING!

By this do you mean that it plays SACDs, or that it does it's own upsampling of RB CDs in which case why wouldn't you?

I love the mountain stages those are the most grueling and exciting especially when Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen mention how steep the climbs are in feet and percent grade. I have a 11% and 13% climb at the end of my Saturday rides but they are only a fraction of a mile, I can't imagine suffering through climbs like that for miles.

You got me on that one Steve. I'm in so that I can hear all the gear I missed at CanJam 2009.

Happy Breadday!

:dan:Happy Happy Birthday Mike. We owe you a beer at RMAF in October. Congratulations on the new gear. If you haven't bought anything in the last week, please refer to this post in another week and I am sure it will be timely then.
