102 Appendix C Connecting to the Internet
Once you configure your network, your Internet connection is ready. You can open your
web browser or other TCP/IP application to test your connection.
Important: If you did not select the option to connect automatically, you will need to
open the Internet Connect application, choose the correct configuration, and then click
Connect. For more information, choose Help > Internet Connect Help from the menu
bar at the top of the display.
AirPort Wireless Connection
If your Power Mac G5 has an AirPort Extreme Card installed, you can configure your
AirPort network and Internet connection using AirPort Setup Assistant, located in the
Utilities folder within your Applications folder. The assistant helps you configure the
AirPort Base Station and set up your computer to use AirPort. For more information
about your AirPort Base Station, see the AirPort Base Station Setup Guide that came with
your base station.
If your AirPort Base Station is already configured, in most cases your AirPort Extreme
Card is ready to access it immediately.
To check if you have access to an AirPort network:
m Click the AirPort status icon in the menu bar and choose an AirPort network listed
there.
If you don’t see an AirPort network listed, you can use AirPort Setup Assistant to check
or change your settings, or you can change them using the Network pane of System
Preferences.
