No, it is actually preventing computers without Windows 98se or above to connect. Once again, I don't know much about networking, but the light on the router/switch turns amber instead of green and doesn't respond if you connect without Windows. I don't know exactly how the admin does it.
Here is the router/switch that we use: http://www.netgear.com/products/details/RP614.asp
and here is the modem: http://www.toshiba.com/taisnpd/products/pcx2200.html
Thanks, Terry
If you RTM then you would see that an amber light indicates that the unit is connected with the computer at 10Mbs, which is correct for older Apple computers.
Also, there is a good Macintosh setup page <http://www.netgear.com/support/faqs/N101174.asp> available.
