I don't understand what you're looking for. If you have 5 cable modems, and 5 computers, you just plug one computer into each cable modem. If you want 5 computers to share one …

How did you buy 5 G4 computers and not be aware that they are equipped with airport card slots? Why don't you tell us what computers you have. I saw no mention of laptops in your f…

On my gf's ibook.... basically i plug in a network cable and the internet works... this is at my place.. right now im at my gf's place...she has a dlink wireless router ... the ai…

Does she have any security in force? WEP? MAC address filtering?

Have you ever connected this iBook through this particular router, or is this a new router? If it's new, then I think you need to set up the router for DHCP.

right now this router is connecter her windows pc via a patch cable...and wirelessly to her dad's computer... i will have to look into this dchp and WAP pw thing... her dad set up …

success! apparently automatic settings don't detect... so i manually put in the ip address of her router, etc... one thing tho... should i leave the Location settings for 'autom…

i have to questions: 1.hi can someone please tell me, that will i be able to do file sharing with a pc running netware 5.0 and me running prosoft's mac client 5.12 2. hi, can an…

Hey, Sounds like you need peer-to-peer file/device sharing. You can do that with what you've got right now, Appletalk! Just share the floppy on your older laptop, and through th…

I'm don't think the PowerBook 165 has ethernet (it's an '030!). And G3s don't have serial ports, so LocalTalk is out. Your best bet is probably PowerBook SCSI mode: http://til.inf…

Does anyone know if Nikia6100 really work with Infra red together with Mac G3 PowerBook?

I believe that on US spec. models of the 6100 series phones the IrDa window at the top in not supported by any electronics. Its just a dummy. The European spec. phones feature IrDa…

European Nokia 6100-Series phones support Laptop-Connectivity if you're using Windows 95. Nokia has, however, learnt from their faults: the new Nokia 7110 will include full irDa-Mo…

I own a Nokia 6110 (Euro Spec) with a functioning IrDa (have played Snake and beamed numbers to other 6110 owners). I also own a new G3/400 PowerBook and was wondering if it is at …

As i tried Nokia 6100 doesn't work with PB G3 and OS 8.6. The only phone which works perfect is Ericsson 888. I was able to send e-mail even from running car.

None of the Nokia 61xx mobiles will work with IrDa. Only the Nokia 81xx do work with IrDa, this is the only nokia phone supplied with a fully functional modem to the IrDa port. T…

I know the contest is over, but I did this tonight and it appeared to be a bit nicer than I thought. It's a theme inspired of Warcraft III for those who didn't noticed. I spent a …
