I tried using escale, and I can see my mac from the newton, but I
can't connect to it. I saw this note in the troubleshooting guide:
"If you are using an Airport Extreme Base Station, we are aware of
the problem. Paul lost nearly all his hair on this problem. The only
workaround was to either replace the Airport Extreme Base Station
with the good old Graphite one or run tcpdump on the Mac (!). "
I'm using an airport extreme base station. Is there a workaround yet?
Thanks,
Nick
