Network Connections

If you have two or more computers attempting to share an Internet connection, be
sure that your network is set up properly. You need to know if your ISP provides only
one IP address or if it provides multiple IP addresses.

If only one IP address is used, then you must have a router capable of sharing the
connection, also known as network address translation (NAT) or “IP masquerading.” For
setup information, check the documentation provided with your router or ask the
person who set up your network. The AirPort Base Station may be used for this routing
function. For information on using the AirPort Base Station, check the onscreen help or
visit the Apple AirPort website at www.apple.com/airport.

If you cannot resolve the issue using these steps, contact your ISP.
