The 10baseT connection certainly should work, it has for me on my S900 through several versions of OS X. This of course isn't true for those attempting to use an E100 card, which isn't supported under OS X. I realize you're referring to the built-in connection though, which is supported. Are you not seeing a "Built-in Ethernet" option in the drop down menu within the "Network" pref pane? -Howie -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
