ethernet

Hi My wife has just bought a mac mini and her ethernet connection doesnt appear to be allowing her to connect to the internet (wired adsl router). The connection TCP/IP panel shows a working IP address and the fault finding / help wizard is positive until the internet and server parts are...

I'm using a dual 800 G4, running OSX 10.3.9. I am connected to a router/gateway that is connected to a cable modem. I can connect my pc desktop, pc laptop wirelessly and via ethernet and my powerbook wirelessly and via ethernet using the router. I can not for the life of me get the G4 to work...

Recently I noticed that my ethernet port wasn't working well. I isn't of the setting but the port itself. The port looses connection with the switch, however when I try to move the eth. connecton/cable up and down the connection is back established and light of the switch is shining. Initiatlly...

Over the past year I have had 2 older iMacs and 1 600MHz iBook brought to me with what appeared to be dead Ethernet ports. For all outward appearances the ports were DOA. No router or switch would show any sign of life on the Ethernet ports when hooked up to these Macs. BUT in each case I...

I thought I would post this unusual problem and solution to get it out in the ETHER net. I have new house that the rocket scientist that built it put in ONE cat5 cable to each outlet in the house. This was for phone AND ethernet. No problem really, because 10/100 ethernet requires only 4 wires...

I have a Power Mac g4 sawtooth 1gig ram Recently install OsX on to system, now it does not see the Ethernet port. Says "You are not connected to the Internet" I have a LAN 5 port switch Netgear MN:FS605 v2 Switch connects to a Sonic wall appliance MN:APL11-029 Sonic wall appliance...

I've recently signed up for Broadband using a ZyXel Prestige 600 series modem. It works fine on the PC, but my G3 PowerBook running OS 10.4.2 seems to be having problems connecting to Ethernet through the PPPoE option. As far as I can tell I've entered all the correct details etc. You can...

I've seen a smattering of other posts on this topic but none that seemed to fully address the problem, so I hope a solution has surfaced more recently. Basically, my G4 Powerbook running 10.3.9 keeps dropping its internet connection. How/when it picks it back up again is indeterminant, and...

Hello: I just finished moving and I'm in the process of setting up my home network which consists of a Mac G4, Dell Dimension, Linksys Firewall/Router and a Westell 6100 DSL modem. I decided to install the DSL through the Mac, as it is my primary computer. I bypassed the Linksys FW/R...

Home network consists of a G4, Dell Dimension, Linksys Firewall/Router, and Westell 6100 DSL modem. The Dell can connect to both the internet and the Linksys. The G4 cannot connect to either. I cannot ping the G4 from the Dell or the Dell from the G4. I have verified the ethernet card is...

I have an xserve (dual 2.3 ghz, 1gb)running Tiger server(10.4.2) I have been led to believe that you can configure the two network ports on the xserve into a single trunk, giving your server a 2GB connection to the network. I take it this would improve performance when multiple users are...

Hi... I just got rid of my Leonardo USB Modem for a recommended D-Link ISDN Ethernet Modem and Router. I have all of my four computers working perfectly on my LAN as per before... my main problem is that I used to connect to the internet using the drop down modem menu where my Leonardo USB &...

Ok right now im using a linksys router and a mini airport thingy, how would i be able to jus plug my ethernet cable into my port on my comoputer. when i tried b4 the internet would not connect. usin imac g5

I am attempting to restrict who can connect to my mac mini's airport in order to access it's ethernet connection. I do not want to do this via encryption however but rather by: 1. Restricting the mac addresses that can connect. 2. (preferrably) When a user connects, they are presented with a...

Not to say anything bad about the company. I just got a PCMCIA Ethernet card from Protech and with the drivers installed I still can't get to connect thru my DSL Modem. What other makes and models do others have and would recommend? Using it in a G3 Powerbook Lombard. Currently using 9.2.2 will...

Hi, I would like to connect my Mac running Panther directly by ethernet to an HP Laserjet 9000dn with an internal Jetdirect printer server. I am not sure if I need to assign IP addresses to both the computer and the printer to do this and how to do it (there doesn't appear to be an IP address...

I added a folder across the network yesterday, and the computer is attempting to connect upon startup. I am stuck at the window reading "connect to file server" and when I attempt to click to the "connect" button, I get a spinning beachball. I can access all of my programs (or those that I've...

I have a G3 400mh w/1G of Ram running OS X 2.8. I've added a Sonnet PCI controller card and a 120G Hitachi hard drive. I am networking my home - at the moment I have 2 machines that until recently had DSL access through Verizon. After a recent electrical storm, I noticed the G3 no longer would...

Good day; I seem to have lost my ethernet port on my Quicksilver Dual 1 Ghz Mac. (We had a lightning storm this morning... !!) The last time this happened, the Apple store had to replace the motherboard. I had other claims for the insurance company, so this was well into the deductables...

Greetings I am running OS 10.3.8 on a 400MHz G3 power book and am trying to connect to the Internet via a D-Link 302G Ethernet modem. I've moved from Canada, where I regularly connected to other Macs and at least 4 different ADSL modems without any trouble. I plugged the modem in as...
