Faulty ethernet cable. Dying interface - shorted or zapped by a power surge. >How also to test the iMac ethernet, without hooking up the DSL modem? >and check to see if it is working OK? Connect the ethernet to a hub, switch, or other mac. Turn on TCP/IP and see if the green light comes on and stays on. If connected to another Mac, then turn on AppleTalk. If AppleTalk over ethernet will come up then the interfaces are working. - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
