OK, HELP!!!!!! Large and extensive problem here - I am cutting out my current PC server (AMD K6 500Mhz) in order to give my sister a computer, and am trying to hook up the iMac G4 as a server to take over.
*PROBLEM*: I am connected to NTL UK Broadband via Ethernet Port - (I DO NOT USE A CABLE/ADSL MODEM - It goes through the digital television as Ethernet). The iMac only has one Ethernet port, and I cannot hook it directly into the hub as NTL will only allow one active machine as the server - Thus - all other machines on the network have to first go THROUGH the active server before they can reach the internet. ONLY HAVING ONE ETHERNET PORT, I CANNOT CONNECT BOTH THE HUB AND THE SET TOP BOX TO THE IMAC! Can anyone help? I was thinking of some kind of USB-Ethernet adaptor but out of the ones I have, none are Mac-compatable. Other Machines on the network: - iMac G4 FP, 1Ghz, 256MB - iMac G3 DV, 400Mhz, 256MB - AMD Athlon XP 1800+ PC, 1500Mhz, 256MB - (Sometimes) - Apple PowerMac 4400/160, 160Mhz, 32MB - (Sometimes) - HP Omnibook 5700 Laptop, 166Mhz, 16MB -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
