Thinking some more about your problem... I think I remember you saying you had a strange IP address listed? Or am I getting you confused with something else I've been working on ;-)
Anyway, if thats the case, then DHCP isn't working for you. Straight off, double check all of the settings on your TCP/IP tab. If they all look right, contact your ISP and get the block of IP's they assigned you. They'll give you a range of numbers like 23.xxx.xxx.20- 23.xxx.xxx.24 or something like that. Find out what two addresses your other Macs are using and which one your routers using and pick a free one. Assign that as a manually entered IP address on your 3400. Make sure you enter the Subnet Mask and Name Server information (DNS) - very important. Once this is done, if you don't have a PING program on your Mac, go to Apples site and download MacTCP Ping. Using a Ping utility, attempt to PING the IP address of your Router from the 3400. If you can't ping the router, try pinging the other Macs... If you can't ping the other Macs, try pinging yourself. If you can Ping the router, but you can't access the internet, it's likely a DNS issue... Try opening your browser window and instead of typing www.xxxxxx, try typing in an IP address. If you don't know the IP address of a website, try 161.58.225.20 Thats the IP address for redriver.com See if you can surf to the site using IP address rather than name... thats a sure sign of a DNS issue.
