Dang sorry none out there. I sold my 5300 weeks ago, but had the same setup so I have given you all I could as info. Sorry.

Thank you for your note, Bruce.

I suspect that you are correct; in the OS upgrade (8.1 to 8.6) and
re-installation of the Dayna CommuniCard driver, I've gotten some things
tangled and misplaced.

We've also noticed a need for a sequenced shut-down and restart of our dsl
modem and router to get our desktop machines onto the ISP's network. That,
however, comes after we get the drivers and internal settings selected
correctly.

If it's convenient for you to send screenshots of your TCP/IP panel and any
Dayna desktop icon there may be in your set-up, I'd find it very helpful.

Regards,

Tom Barclay

Hello, all -

Trying to get a PB 5300 to use a Dayna Communicard for network/ DSL

access.

Will be trying the same thing with a PB 190, in a week or two. Freshly
upgraded (clean install) to OS 8.6 from OS 8.1.

The ISP (Verizon) recommends that Macs use DHCP to connect (through a
router), but I can't find DHCP as a connection option as I work through

the

TCP/IP control panel.

What does 'Connect Via' show in the TCP/IP control Panel? It should say
Ethernet, or PCMCIA Ethernet or something like that, and there should a
dropdown menu right under that marked Configure: one option is
'Automatically using DHCP server'.

If it says MacIP, you're likely missing the Dayna drivers for the
card...ISTR the Dayna drivers are available buried on Intel's site. ONe
of my desktop Macs is connected via a Dayna commslot ethernet adapter
and all it says is 'Ethernet', but there are several extensions that it
needs to have loaded to work.
