Well...

Do you have a program to establish a connection to another computer? You can connect via http (netscape), ftp (fetch), or to another apple file server on another connected mac. You might also need to configure your network settings in the TCP/IP control panel.

If you're still lost - ask a friend or associate (who knows how to configure a network) to configure the computer for you.

LI means that the link between the asante and the router or switch is established. This is good. It's probably a configuration problem.

I have the driver.

There is no place on my model to plug in an AC adapter. There is nothing but the SCSI port, the RJ45 jack and a BNC plug (for an alternate Ethernet connector). (I did say it was the "Desktop EN-SC" model; apparently the other models in the product line do have AC adapters.)

The power LED remains on while the Mac is operational, and the "LI" (link?) light blinks at a fixed rate. Occasionally I've gotten TX and RX to blink as well. The port does not show up on the router and no IP is being found but I think the brick is.
