Hi,

I am trying to get a Cat6 cable to work in my G5 running OSX 10.4.8.

The cable will work in a PC and in our G4 (OS9). It will also work if I change the port the cable is in the switch.

It just won't work in the G5. If I put the old cable in, that works.
I cannot ping or do anything network related. There is no signal light on the switch.

Is there a setting I need to change on the G5 or something on the switch?

Any help/ideas gratefully received.
