Bill, After responding to our off list correspondence. I shockingly and with embarasement realized that I can plug in a RJ-45 jack in the back of the 3400. But, I coudn't find an "internal ethernet" option in TCP/IP or appletalk control panels. So I looked in Apple Profile and find no internal ethernet card installed.
Guess like everthing else, some have it, some don't.

Hi Power-Mac-ers,
I bought a used 3400c, and am having trouble getting the internet working on it.
As a way to test my system settings, etc, I took out the hard drive, temporarily installed it another 3400c (which has another problem.) I can access the internet on it, so that tells me the system/software is set up correctly.
Next, I exchanged the built-in Ethernet card with the working one from the other 3400c and still can't get it to work.
Can anyone think of any other possibilites to check/replace?
I'm wondering if it could be the chip on the main logic board, that controls the internal ethernet card. I assume there's one. Defective logic board, but only for this one function? Have others had this problem?
Next question; If I buy a PCMCIA card with Ethernet, what are the chances that will work in this computer, since the built-in Ethernet doesn't work?
Thanks to everyone who gave responses to my previous questions!
Bill
