ahhh ok i get what you are trying to do now. i thought it was surfing on the net or trying to get on the net , and not doing file transfers over the network. my bad

i only use wifi on my AIO when i am in OS X, only use wired in Mac OS 9 to play the few games that wont run in OS X online.

i guess you dont have any other choice but to get a 10/100baseT PCI card or a wifi PCI card. or just suffer thru the slow transfer speed. it sucks Apple limited the Beige G3 to half duplex

i do have 2 10/100base t PCI cards that came stock in my 2 AIO's that i dont use ( well 1) since i have 1 of them in my P1
