    Linksys Router with Powerbook

    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...

    Waiting for Network Initilization...stall?

    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...

    Linksys Router with Powerbook

    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

    Linksys Router with Powerbook

    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...

    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...

    Linksys Router with Powerbook

    Thank you for your reply, but that is what was there already. When I select "Using DHCP with Manual IP Address" in the configure slot, underneath it shows the subnet mask as 255.255.255.0, and the router as 192.168.1.1. However there is nothing in the ip address box. There is just 0.0.0.0...
