Hi Everyone

Have any of you managed to connect your Mac to Optusnet ADSL Broadband ?

I have used Optusnet Dial-up for some years and found the service good.

Recently I decided my phone bill was getting too high and I investigated the possibility of changing my internet access to Optusnet Broadband.

I was surprised to learn that Optusnet does not support Macintosh.

The modem they supply (D-Link DSL-302G) is compatible with both Macs & PCs but the CD supplied by Optus with the modem contains only the Manual & PC Driver, They do not send the Mac driver which is included if you don't buy the modem through Optus..

On the other hand, the D-Link web site indicates that if the ethernet port is used, no driver is needed for Macs.

I am a novice in this broadband business and am somewhat confused. I know I can change ISPs but I have been quite happy with Optus and don't especially want to change my email address.

Or, is there a fix ?

Thank you for any advice

Regards
John Weekes
