I have been helping a friend to install a couple more computers in her vet's practice, obviously Macs, but as her budget/needs don't stretch further than iMac 233MHz and Mac G3 300 B&W she's running Mac OS 9.2.2.
As I have completely migrated to OS X I am a little stumped by the limited settings in OS 9. Basically:
One of the iMacs will not connect to the Internet.
The settings are the same as for the others; "Ethernet" "DHCP" etc. but the subnet mask shows up as 255.255.0.0 instead of 255.255.255.0 and the IP address is 169.x.x.x. which I understand means that it is not connected to the Internet.
What can affect this ?
I did a completely fresh install after reformat and all.
I have restarted and restarted, connected, disconnected...
???
