are you picking up any signal at all? Is it your having trouble connecting, or your connected and have no internet?

try kismac, if nothing shows up then I'd say take it back, btu this will show you what's going on.

ummm your airport is built in....
look for the little signal icon in the upper right hand corner, in between your bluetooth and sound.
set your prefs by going to the "open internet connect" menu
select your network

go to the linksys homepage, they have an insanely good technical difficulties page and have programs that will walk you through everything. Its easy.

use an ethernet cord and hardwire your comp to the router to get the wireless setup, or use a diff computer that can connect to the net in your house

Linksys might not be compatiable with a mac. But it shuld say on the box what type of computers it is compatible with.

i had the same problem - it has something to do with a code on the linksys or something and you have to find out what the code is and then enter it somewhere: you can also change it if you want- my sister's friend fixed it and i wasn't around to see them so that is all i know
