Networking problems
Hey Folks, Been subbed for two days now and already I'm learning. Still, questions abound. With a new/old pb1400c, I'm wondering... what to do with it? Would be a perfect word processor for school, yet the problem is how to get it to talk with my other computer. In the mail is a Sonnet G3 333 upgrade, I'll be getting OS 8.6 (although I just read somewhere it's better to stick with 8.5 with the 1400.) And I have a Orangelink cardBus PC firewire card that someone found extra in an order. Now, after I get the upgrade (the sonnet upgrade) will I be able to use this firewire card to connect to my iMac G3 500? Can one use firewire to connect computers? Will I be stuck with shelling out another $100 for an ethernet card? I tried using an external modem for file transfer, via email, but it felt silly. cheers, Max -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

3400 Ethernet Extension
I didn't realize when I installed 8.6 that the 3400 used a special extension for modem/ethernet. Now I am trying to connect my 3400 to my home network to share a cable modem, but I can't get it to see the Ethernet card. I have a feeling this is becasue I don't have the right extension loaded.

networking with a Duo
I've tried to set up an ethernet network between a Duo 2300 and my 6100, but the Duo frequently hangs up while loading the extensions. I've done a voodoo dance with the Duo and sometimes it will connect, but usually it hangs after the Express modem extension loads on the screen. I've played with extension sets on the Duo, going to 8.5 base and 8.5 all while including extensions that I'll need for filesharing, but it still hangs up. It does seem to be an extensions problem, but am I missing something obvious? For operating systems, the 6100 runs 8.1 and the Duo has OS 8.5.1. As for hardware, the 6100 has an AAUI transceiver and I'm trying to connect the 2300 through a mini-dock with an Asante EN/SC SCSI ethernet adapter. When I've used the SCSI adapter with my PB 170 it connects every time.When I disconnect the adapter from the duo it starts up just fine. I have done the serial cable mini-network between the 6100 and the Duo but would love to do the cross-over network for ethernet. BTW, I can connect my 170 to an iMac using the EN/SC adapter but the iMac won't connect to the Duo. Frank Modica Prairie School 2102 E.

Re: PC IDE drive in a 5300
Master is the correct setting. I am getting several odd clicks, beeps, and crashes. Apples Drive Setup 1.7.3 is what I have used to initialize it, but even with that there is a 5mb portion that is Locked and cannot be initialized. Now that it has been initialized when I boot up the Mac wants to initialize that 5mb disk, but cannot because it it locked. What you need to do is reformat the drive, but do a custom setup on it, whcih will allow you to delete that odd locked partition. (which is likely a 'quickstart' partition used by the old PC it was in; these partitions let you save the memory state of the computer and quickly restart rather than rebooting, much like Virtual PC does.) But that is the rub, it won't let me initialize that partition. Always fails. Even Norton 3.5 and 4.0 could not make a dent. joseph -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Macintoshes do not obtain the DNS server address automatically when connecting via PPP, the way most computers do. This is the first thing to check.

Re: ethernet card summary
I have this card I am trying to get to work on a Powerbook 1400 running 8.6. It is by Dlink, see link below. No luck yet but does have mac driver disk in the box. Instructions say it works with only newer powerbooks like 2400, 3400 etc, web says works with 1400 also. Can't find drivers on the web. At this site the card is not badly priced. It is a 10/100 card and has a 56k modem. And is dongleless. Maybe you will have better luck getting it to work than I did. If anybody tries this card and gets it to work on 1400 please let me know. Maybe I am just doing something wrong. http://shop.store.yahoo.com/akidacomputer/dlinpcmci10m.html You did leave an important brand off of the list however and that is Kingston. Many of their cards had mac drivers in the box as well as on the web. I am currently using a Kingston EtheRX IC PC Card in my Powerbook 1400. Box included mac and pc drivers when I bought it several years ago. Has worked flawlessy for me. Also I believe Dayna had compatible cards.

Re: 5300 expansion bay?
There were a variety of VST removable hard drives for it. I have a couple of 640MB 2 GB models.I believe you can upgrade the hard drives in these to a much greater capacity. There was also a VST removable MO disk drive which I owned until the 230mb limit became a hassle. All of these fit on my 3400/240 also. I miss expansion bays.

Re: networking problems (1400 and iMac)
Good thought though. I like that idea and may try it myself, Thanks Alternatively, you could get a 1400-compatible PCMCIA wireless card. The Lucent Silver card has had good reviews and costs around $45-50 from OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/specials/MailList.cfm You could then get an airport card for your iMac. I'd seen them going for around $50 at various places on the web, but can't remember now. Give Sherlock a try. This solution might be a little bit more expensive than an ethernet card for your 1400, but it's a thought. Good luck. Chris H Proofread carefully to see if you any words out. Chris S.
