Hi Listers: I have a question that has me sort of perplexed. We bought a new dual 1 gig G4 yesterday and I was setting it up. I get my internet connection from a PC with a PCI DSL card in it. So, with my G4 867, I have it connect using DHCP and it's always been able to get an IP from the PC and connect to the net just fine. Well, when setting up the dual 1 gig G4 yesterday, it was going through the setup and it chose Bootp as the connection protocol. I thought that this was wrong and changed it over to 'using DHCP' like on the 867. Try as I might, it would not get an IP. I played around a bit and was getting a headache from the whole thing when I thought of just putting it back to Bootp and it worked. Can anybody explain this to me in simple terms?
