First, I posted this also to the 8500 listserv so sorry if anyone has to
read this twice.
Hello everyone,
I seem to have a bit of a problem here. I've just come back to Mac's from
Windoze and I have
and 8500. What I do with my PC is just hook it up to my cable modem, turn
it on and it generates
and IP address just fine.
Thing is, the Mac doesn't. I've set the TCP/IP control panel to Ethernet
and Use DHCP server but
when I reboot it either doesn't pull and IP at all or gives me some weird
IP address that the modem doesn't
understand. I'm running OS 8.5 now and I had the same problem with the
original 7.5 that was installed on it.
I've tried all I can think of to fix it and without connectivity, the
machine is worthless to me. (I design web pages and have to upload
everything when I finish).
Any ideas or suggestions?? (fingers, toes, eyes, anything else I can, crossed)
Thanks,
Chris
