Kevin,

As others have mentioned, we need to know how you're connecting to the internet - if you are connecting via ADSL, John's point might be appropriate.



The eMac in question is linked through a 5 port switch to another eMac connected to the net by an ethernet DSL-300 modem. The main eMac doesn't have a connection prompt, but the linked one does get the prompt. It is not a great problem, but one I could do without.

Thanks,

Kev
