    Wireless Networking via MacBook Pro

    The only way I can get networking to work in WinXP is to manually assign IP address, subnet and gateway. Is there any way I can get it to obtain IP automatically? I'm using MacBook Pro with built in Airport. My DSL modem is the gateway/DHCP server. Thanks

    Beta Notes...

    I downloaded the beta last night and installed it onto my MacBookPro. What a fantastic piece of software this is!! The speed increase over MS VPC for PowerPC is incredible and is certainly very usable. I prefer to use a Mac for all usual computing except when I have to program some Windows...
