I have a minimax drive that I was able to connect to and backup via time machine when I connected directly via firewire. But now I want to set it up on the airport extreme's usb port. I'm not able to see the drive in the airport extreme disks. I went in to file sharing and setht share disks over WAN, but still no go.<br />

Wireless networking is a method by which homes, telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment locations. Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place at the physical level (layer) of the OSI model network structure. The key hardware components of a wireless computer network include adapters, routers and access points, antennas and repeaters.
