Used to work. Now it doesnt. I know it worked before becuase i used it in conjunction with a tiger laptop for getting files through, becuase my main machine runs windows 7 x64 which does NOT support Basilisk II netowkring drivers.

A long time had passed between becuase of the Win7 issue and upgrading to leopard on the lappy. But i decided to mess with it once again.

So i installed vbox and installed XP inside that with basilisk, went over to the 5460 to switch back over to Ethernet appletalk (was printer port), and boom freeze. odd...

Sees IP addy from DHCP so i know the NIC isnt dead....

I havent tried a fresh install of the OS because OMG thats alot of work. lol. Lots of stuff on the HDD, 20gb HDD. I would have to back it up. Oh wait, network isnt working so i cant. hehe. The 5460 is used as a central system between any mac i hook up. it has both ethernet and localtalk, so if im working on an older mac without ethernet, it routes internet and appletalk localtalk files over, and etc... IPNetRouter isnt installed right now. it expired so i uninstalled it.

I use a pair of xBee Radio modems to make my localtalk network wireless. So im not confined to the cable when transferring files say, from a laptop without ethernet.
