just in case anyone looks at this trying to solve their own problem, this is what I did to fix it.
I connected with PPPoE and then set it to show up in the toolbar. I then clicked on connect and I was golden.
I had to input in my dsl carriers information, but after that I was good to go...
I am not sure what you mean about using a network interface. In pref/network I have Location: automatic; Show: Built-in Ethernet; Configure: Using DHCP. It shows an ip address and subnet mask as well. I am using a linksys router, and the 2 xp machines that I have running from the router work ok...
Hello,
When my osx computer is booting up it stalls out at the point where it says waiting for network initilization....and doesn't connect when I get into osx. Any suggestions as to why it does this...and even better a remedy :)
Thanks for your time,
Steve
I am beginning to think that the problem is not with my mac, but with my settings on my xp machines. Should it matter what type of networking I have going on with the 2 xp machines, i.e. would that interfer with the mac connection at all?
Thanks,
Steve
Thanks for the suggestion, but that didn't do it either. I don't get it, because I just moved to a new apartment and I used a cable connection at my last place and it worked no problem.
Now I am using DSL and it won't budge with a connection at all.
:(
Any other suggestions?....I...
Thanks for your reply....
I am still having no luck....the exact error when trying to go to a webpage is "The specified Server could not be found"
Yea, I have tried both putting in 192.168.1.1 and leaving it out of DNS Servers list....still nothing. The lights on my router are all green...
Hello,
How do I bring in footage from my video camera into osx? I know the usb hookup and all that, but what program do I use to import the video in?
Thanks,
Steve
I tried that as well, still nothing. I am really beginning to wonder what the problem could be here. Do mac's not like dsl that is put through a router?
Peace,
Steve
What came up as dns server in the command prompt was 192.168.1.1, which is the same as the Router. I tried setting it to using dhcp with manual ip address and hit apply now and instantly my xp machine lost connection.
When I set it to Using DHCP an ip address shows up as: 192.168.1.100 and it...
Thank you for your reply. I tried a ping and it says that 10 packets were transmitted, and 10 packets recieved. 0% packet loss. Round trip min/avg/max = 0.544/0.585/0.834 ms
So it looks like it ping'd ok, what would you suggust I do from here? I tried the ipconfig/all and a dos prompt comes...
Thanks for your reply....what do you mean internet zone and local zone? Also, why do you change the last digit?....what did you change it too?
Sorry for my confusion.
Peace,
Steve
