Well… the setup you are talking about sounds a lot like XSAN, which is a fairly complex storage system. Some good places to start learning about it:

Apple’s XSAN Administrator’s Guide

Apple Pro Training Series: XSAN Quick Reference Guide

To learn about FCP:

To learn about Mac OS X Server:

You should keep in mind that these books are definately not ALL you are going to need to know about running an XSAN… it is a fairly complex system. The best thing to do is to get someone who is very knowledgeable about it and learn from them while working on it.

Best,

OK, now that I know your setup it makes more sense. I know that upgrading to an N Base Station is expensive, but based on the history of the DLink, it would make sense. With it being unreliable, it would make sense to spend a little bit of money on a setup that will be both reliable, fast, and completely compatible. I have been working with the N’s and have been very impressed with both their reliability and configurability.

For a little clarification, you are trying to connect a Mac to a D-Link wireless access point (or router)?

If this is the case, I believe that some of the older Macs don’t support WPA2. What model Mac are you attempting to connect with?
