A1200 Broadband via router
« on: July 03, 2004, 06:59:18 PM »
I've just bought a 3Com megahertz 3CCE589ET 10Mbps PCMCIA lan card.  I've been trying to connect it to the internet via my Netgear DG834 Switch/ADSL Modem/Router/Gateway using Miami 3.2b (demo version).  I've been using the router fine for months with 3 PCs running win2k and xp, so I'm sure the router is set up correctly.

Unfortunately, I just can't get it to work with the amiga - the light on the pcmcia card comes on, and the corresponding light comes on on the router, so I'm guessing at least there is a signal going to the router from the amiga card.  However, if I set up miami to use DCHP (which the router is set up for) it cannot resolve an ip address.  If I use a static ip, subnet mask and gateway, miami will go online straight away, and seem to be working fine, however i cannot access any sites in Ibrowse.  Also, if i go into the router's configuration screen using another PC in the network, the router does not detect the amiga as being connected.

Does anyone know any extra options in Miami I should check, or anything else that may be causing this problem? :-?
