Hi folks...



since yesterday i'm a proud owner of an apple my first apple



It's and Power Mac 9500/200 with OS 9.1. There are 3 nic's on that machine At least there are 3 RJ-45 ports. If i put a network cable in one of that ports and the other end in my 3Com switch than the machine acts strange, gets error messages like "finder has stopt" and then i have to restart.



The Swith is connected to a router with DHCP.



How can i configure my nic? I want on the internet with that machine. Is it possible?



Gr Roman

    In Appletalk/Network control panel you configure networking over a specific card as opposed to "built in".

    You may need to download a driver for the specific Network interface Card in order for it to show up as a new choice.

    Try them one at a time, with only one card in at a time..



    I used to use one card for SDSL and the other ET connection for Appletalk to talk to my local LAN, but I had network frustrations. Easier to do with a real switch.

    I can remember using AppleTalk Interport Router software on an old mac with several NICs... memories...may be obsolete but yet...
