When you have your computer connected, open the TCP/IP control panel and you should have an IP address assigned. If you don't you have a DHCP assignment problem. The next step is to see if you have basic connectivity. Do you have a 'ping' program available. The next check would be to make sure you can ping the DNS entries. If you can, the next step would be to ping 17.112.152.32 (www.apple.com). At some point something is not going to work, and that is where you address the problem. -- -- Mr. PopMan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - "Does anybody want to play a game of pinball?"
