You have to hook them up to a network with a proper cable, otherwise the driver does not load. Typically what you will want to do is: From the cable modem connect to a router. The router takes the single IP address the cable provides, and creates a "local" network with local IP addresses for pretty much as many computers as you hook up to it. The router may include a hub or switch, if it doesn't then thr router needs to connect to a external switch or hub. All the macs plug into the switch or hub. Normal Cat5 ethernet cable should work for all the connections, but do read the directions as you may need to set a switch or something. Also just plugging the mac into a hub or switch should be sufficient to test the operation of your cards (green light on hub or switch for that port, ditto on card). -- StarMax is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> StarMax list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/starmax.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/starmax%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
