Here's my setup, which uses a direct tcp airport connection, rather
than appletalk, and seems to work rather well.
The powerbook is set up to provide a computer-computer network.
Powerbook's IP on airport is 192.168.1.3, subnet mask 255.255.255.0,
router 192.168.1.3 (machine routes ip using brickwall). Appletalk is
off on airport. 'by default join' is set to automatic.
Newt has Paul's TCP/IP dock module installed. worksite wavelan setup
in infrastructure mode, no WEP, no roaming, no power management.
worksite internet setup uses manual configuration using the wavelan
card, subnet 255.255.255.0, ip 192.168.1.64, gateway 192.168.1.3, dns
and domain as per my ISP.
When I bang the card in the newt, I uncheck 'use for appletalk'
Dock setup as follows: manual settings, connect to 192.168.1.3 port
3679. I could probably zeroconf here, but I've not been able to find
the magic incantation to make that work.
It's rare that the connection times out.
Hope that helps.
Simon
