Without more information, trying to answer this would be shooting in the dark. How are you configuring TCP/IP on each machine? DHCP? Manual? If Manual, what IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Router address? How can tell that the iBook does OK? What is it you're trying to do on this network; filesharing? internet connection sharing? something else all together? -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
