The latest: I've bought a new CS II Ethernet card on eBay. The seller claims it worked and has given a non-DOA guarantee. I can't get either card to work. Neither one lights up (green light on the back). The network cable is home-made and works fine on the PC I set up (has been working fine on several systems over several months, in fact). I've tried plugging it into a 10baseT hub and a 10/100 N-way autosensing switch. No joy. The hub and switch don't show a connection there, either. (Both have been working fine for years.) The school tech has offered me another card, I think I'll take her up on it. But I have to wonder if there's a setting I'm missing? I managed to get the error to go away early on, but now I can't get it back, so I don't even know if it's trying to find the card, nor how to force it to, or whether I should. If I can't get it working on the network, I might as well set it up for the kids' games and just let them play on it until it dies. I can't see spending any more money on it. It it was a PC or even a SPARC I'd have other hardware to try swapping out, but it's my only Mac anything, so I'm left with poking at it with a stick and asking dumb questions. ----- Jeffrey J.
