Hey guys, for the last 3 days I have been trying to get my ethernet to work again on my PowerBook 1400c and for the life of me I can't. The card as far as I know is good (worked the last time I used it) but ever since I wiped the hard drive and installed OS9 it never worked again. I even went back to OS8.5.1 (for some reason OS8.6 doesn't work with my Sonnet card) and I still couldn't get it to work. I have all the card software and it shows up correctly on my desktop. The "link" light lights up on the dongle so its connected and the light on the modem lights up. And even more, when I go to the TCP/IP control panel, my IP address, subnet mask and router address all show up correctly. Also, when I go to get info in the TCP/IP control panel all those addresses show up.
So as far as I can tell everything is working fine. But any time I use any program that pulls off the Internet (quicktime, Norton's and mactracker for example), I get an error and my cable modem flashes differently. I've messed with extensions for a good 3 days now and it just won't work. I get the same results using any of the 4 ethernet extensions (tried them in just about every combination) as well as enabling and disabling the ethernet card driver (if it even does anything). Here are a few details of the stuff I have..... Extensions: (running OS9.1 now) Apple Built-in Ethernet Apple Enet Ethernet (Built In) EtherTalk Phase 2 Dayna C&SS INIT (driver) Card: Dayna CommuniCard Ethernet Adapter (PCMCIA) Connection: Astound Broadband (1.5meg cable line) Any help would be great. I'm hoping that maybe, just maybe I'm missing some small little thing and this all can get working again. Would really like to ditch the whole dial up deal for good on the laptop, thanks.
