Hi -
I recently received a 2.5 gig Dual g5 tower as an upgrade. It came loaded with osx 11.4 and I migrated most of most of my prefs and other related stuff from an older G4 tower. everything seems to work fine on the G5 except that I can not make an internet connection. I've checked most of the obvious stuff like Appletalk, ISP server set up and the like, seem okay. I've had help on the phone from my provider and router manufacturer and both gave up - those areas all work well: I'm getting a signal coming in through the modem just fine (I hooked up my laptop and had no problem connecting). Also, the router was bypassed to check the signal directly into the G5. Nothing. I could call Apple I suppose, but they charge some crazy amount for tech help, so I'm not doing that unless it becomes impossible otherwise. Any suggestions you folks may have would be greatly appreciated... Sharpe
