I'm trying to set up a G3 AIO on my LAN, and have encountered
yet another problem I can't solve. I used the built-in Ethernet and all went
well. Got file sharing, got on the Internet via IE 4.5 and OS 9.1, all was
well. I thought I'd up the horsepower by putting in a 10/100 card, an Apple
Fast Ethernet card, and the result is that I can still get file sharing all
around the LAN, but I cannot get on the Internet. I've tried every
variation of setting the AppleTalk panel and the TCP/IP panel and trashing
preferences and re-booting and all the cheap tricks I know, but no joy on
the web via the card. Any light?
Since you have the built in Enet and the PCI card both live, it is likely the TCP/IP stack is trying to do DHCP on the built in card. It's been a couple of years since I've seen this but when you open the TCP/IP panel there may be a a pulldown menu under Ethernet. See if there is a second ethernet card option. If it isn't in the TCP/IP panel, check Appletalk and see if you can select the card as you normally would between the Printer/Modem port pull down.
