I've got the wake for printer sharing to work. Problem is, I can't access my Mini's shared directories from my MB Pro when the Mini's asleep. The Mini doesn't appear in finder. What am I doing wrong? I've got file sharing on.

Nothin, eh? Should this be in another part of the forum?

Are these networked wired or wireless?

The Mini 1.66 is not compatible with Wake on Demand! I could have found this with a little more research (which I just did). Embarassed

It's no wonder nobody gave any answers!

The problem started when I moved my AEBS from the first floor down to the basement. Before that my Mini was hardwired to it. I was wrong about printing working and file sharing not working. I can't move the modem to the back to the first floor so...

Aside from keeping the Mini awake in perpetuity, would attaching the modem in the basement to an AEX and having the AEBS extend the AEX's network be a solution? How reliable are the new AEX's?

Further, would I be able to export the settings on the AEBS and move them to the AEX without too much fuss?
