After finally getting this setup to work, I noticed that it was taking 
forever for any domains or email to resolve. The solution was to 
manually add my ISP's DNS server IPs to the router and every computer. 
While this did the trick for all the computers connected ditectly to the 
router, I still have all kinds of weirdness using wi-fi with the TiBook:

1) when checking IMAP mail using any client (Mail.app, Thunderbird, 
etc.) I get time-outs after looking into 2 or 3 directories stored on 
the server. It just locks up like it can't see the mail server any more. 
Using an SSH tunnel to my local linux box doesn't help the situation either.

2) Resolving domains is very sporadic. It seems to take about 30+ 
seconds longer than normal.

Like I said, this isn't an issue on any of the other computers connected 
directly to the router regardless of platform... just the Powerbook 
using wifi. Earthlink is of course pointing the the router as the 
problem, and I can find no useful info about this from NetGear or in any 
forums. It doesn't seem to be OS specific either since everything works 
fine if I connect the Powerbook directly to the router. Anyone have any 
suggestions?

Thanks!

Ryan
