1) All 512 MB memory modules are high density (they have chips on both 
sides of the circuit board). The G3 B&W will only recognize half the 
memory in a high density module.

2) The CUDA reset is not labeled "power on". The button labeled "power 
on" is just that, a power switch techs can use while working with the 
board. The CUDA is to the left of the power button and closer to the 
PRAM battery. I would suggest you also try a PRAM reset by removing the 
battery for more than 10 minutes.

3) Do you use PPPoE for connecting to your DSL provider? Do you have a 
24/7 connection or is it one of the services that limit you to (for 
example) no more than 2 hours at a time? What browser are you using? 
Can you ping a known good domain, such as apple.com? Are your browser 
preferences the same on the laptop and the G3? Pay close attention so 
such things as proxy settings.

4) You could have damaged the built-in USB if something defective was 
connected. If all else fails, you could try a PCI USB 2.0 (or better 
still, a combo card with FireWire) and connect all your USB components 
to that card and none to the built-in.
