My MN-700 works really well on my windows based laptop. I can connect with
with wires and without. Unfortunately, my roommate's apple powerbook G4 will
not connect either way. Once it worked when she hooked the line from the
modem into #1 on the mn-700, and her computer into the "to modem" port on it.
Still though, no wireless.

If I can't make this work, I'll have to buy something else. I should have
just gone with the reputable wireless router companies in the first place.

Please let me know if you have any idea how to make this thing work on a mac.

thanks.

I just changed the network settings on the powerbook to DHCP with manual
address, and typed the address that showed up next to the powerbook in the
broadband network utility, and it worked, wired and without.

What does that mean with my dynamic IP service?

Mac are "different," Dave. There are different approaches to use on a Mac,
