To connect the Mac to TC you can try the following, connect Mac to one of the 3 ports. Open Airport Utility ( applications \ utilities ) Airport utility should display your TC in the lefthand side with some information about it in the righthand side. Click continue, you should no get the option to make changes or to restore the TC. Select the option to make changes and press continue. Leave all the settings as it is and continue until you get the option that says This TC is setup to create a wireless network. ( This is what mine shows as I use a wireless network ) select : change these settings.
Select the option that says Disable wireless and connect to a computer or network using ethernet then press continue and follow the instructions. ( this is only to connect the Mac to the TC not to the iburst ). Hope this helps a bit.

Does iburst use a modem or a router ?
