I have been having difficulty ever since a system reinstall went very wrong. I was being helped by a "guru" who inadvertently grabbed a "specialized for a G4" system install disk (and all # � � � broke loose!) My machine would re boot but bombed often. This mixup may have contributed to the problem but we thought we had stripped all remnants of that wrong system by doing a clean install off my Retail 9.04 and then upgraded it to 9.1 with the Apple download.
The problem now is that if while connected happily to the internet, should the machine be restarted, surfing will become impossible. That is unless I undergo a lengthy start up sequence with my cable modem, router, and system. That order is: everything off - cable modem on first and waite until all three lights are locked on - Linksys router on second and its lights are stable - finally the 7600 Sonnet G4 is booted and you will again be able to surf. Any other order and there is always long delays, time outs, and some excuse about "not resolving a screen name," or "check for correct address http can't connect". No amount of tinkering short of the entire startup procedure has proven successful in reconnecting to the internet. Does anybody have any ideas as to what might be causing the reboot difficulty. My machine used to be able to reboot without redoing the modem and router. Why does it get lost when trying to get back in the game? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
