Hi,

After a couple of years of poor connection using a Scientific Atlantic modem Virgin have now sent me a new modem (their own brand) which so far is working brilliantly (compared to the old one) apart from not allowing me to set up my wireless network. Using the old modem I had no problems with the wireless network using a Apple Mac iBook G4 and an Airport Extreme router. However since receiving the new modem I just can't get my wireless set up to work. It works fine connecting the virgin modem directly to the iBook using an ethernet cable. I have noticed a thread discussing how to set up a wireless network using the router supplied by Virgin but before having to give up on my aiport extreme router was hoping someone could help me setting this up.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
