I'll take it you meant OS 9.0.4.



In fact, no ethernet or alternate ethernet appears as an option in TCP/IP. This is strange, because I had previously connected the PB to my cable router with an ethernet cable (via the dongle on a 3Com combo modem/ethernet card).


The Connect Via: options only appear if the required hardware is present. So If the 3Com card isn't inserted it won't appear as a choice.


Any suggestions?

Try de-installing the 3Com software and then re-installing the Orinoco software. There appears to be some limitations in PowerBook Ethernet drivers. I found I could not have Global Village and Kingston drivers installed simultaneously.
