You need to set the emac to connect via airport. Instructions depend
what Mac OS she has. You either open the tcp/ip control panel or open
the Network Control Panel directly. I've connected Macs with Airport
without any issues. Your best bet on how to configure networking to
use Apple Airport would be in a Mac support forum. That process has
nothing to do with what router you are using.
