About two weeks ago, my PB 540c, OS 8.1, 36 MB and my wife's 520c OS 7.5.5, 24 MB, internal modems, both with installs of Open Transport 1.1, Open Transport 1.1.2, & OT-PPP 1.0, Stopped getting viable dial-up connections to the web. They connect alright but Eudora 3.1.3 can't find the POP servers (no addresses displayed) and iCab 2.8.2 & 2.9 says the servers are not available. The connections appear good and as fast as usual. We just can't get anywhere with them. They were working fine. I can't think of any changes I might have made to the configurations.
My G3 desktop running OS 8.6 and my Mac Plus running System 6 continue to perform well on the web with the same ISP. I just got my wife a 1400c, 48MB, external 56K and after doing a clean install of OS 8.1, and the above web software, I get the same results. I'm pretty sure I'm missing something simple here, I just can't figure out what it is. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Why is it just PowerBooks?
