Well Marten, this is very disappointing. So the catch 22 is that, if I want to use the speed of OS 6, I have to compromise my ability to network my Mac in a modern environment. Since I have always regarded the networking abilities of Mac's as one of their key advantages, this seems a bitter choice. Even my home network runs on a DHCP server/router box.
It is a very small compromise. Just set mactcp to manual, set the address class, type in the router address and a fixed ip adress, and you are ready to go. It really isn't such a big deal.
