HELP! Cant get new broadband connection working...
« on: March 09, 2005, 09:25:38 PM »
Oh please, I hope some of you can help!

Spent the past two hours tearing hair out at the fact I cant get my miggy online with my new faaaaast broadband connection.

Right: I have a Netgear DG814 DSL Modem Internet Gateway with four port built in switch.  I have it connected to my miggy via a Norway ethernet adapter off of my AlgorPro.  So far so good.  
Im running OS3.9, and everything else if fine its just configuring the software! I can set it up so I can configure the router so that bit is working but....

Now, how do I config ****** Miami or ****** Genesis to actually allow me to surf the web at this wonderful speed I know as Broadband (I know its great, Im using it on the PC right now! and thats plugged into the DG814 fine!)

Please help, then I can surf the net in bliss and at the same time as my sister so I dont have to use her PC, and I wont go prematurely bald as a result.

Waiting patiently,

Jason

Argh!! Still no luck.  Have taken all the information I can glean from the PC and plugged it into the appropriate places in Genesis, and indeed Miami.  Still nothing.

Is there anyone out there who could possibly help me out by sending me a copy of their config (via email) or could explain in these hallowed pages just how to set everything up but speaking as if I was a four year old?

Ta muchly,

Jason

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D  :-D

Well, here goes.

Ok, getting fed up with the norway not working I thought, right, what else do I have laying around?
Dug out the old AriadneII and plugged it in.  Woo!  

Followed Frags instructions, popped the DNS server in Resolv as well - and now Im flying around the Internet!!!!

Cheers all for your help!!! :-D

Next question - why wouldnt it work with the Norway (add on for Algor)???

Thanks again,

Jason

Nope, no ENV: or ENVARC:Sana2/...

Still its working now! I'm as happy as a very happy person who's just been made Professor of Happiness at Oxford University.

Pah, Norway...
