Wireless broadband setup on Windows and Mac OSX laptops?

    Just installed Eircom's home starter wireless broadband on a Windows XP machine. No bother with the self-install CD etc.

    However I am now trying to get a Mac OSX laptop connected to the same broadband connection.

    Anybody any suggestion on this? I've tried connecting over PPoE but it's not an Ethernet connection I'm setting up here, it's a wireless network card I'm using.

    Could I have locked down the router during the automatic setup of the PC laptop? I had to enter the Mac address of the router so I assume that's something I'm going to have to do on the mac as part of the setup process.

    I've also tried the suggested solutions at http://broadbandsupport.eircom.net but they aren't working for me. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
