Ok, I'm not familiar with the EtherWave product, but you described it as a "bridge". I have never seen a LocalTalk to Ethernet bridge that is capable of MacIP, but I guess it's po…
I have a 2hr battery, so do not need a replacement just now. 2 years from now, maybe. This latest post was made purely with a view to the possibility of experimentation on a dead b…

It looks to me that the drivers aren't installed properly. You should see two network device entries in the MacTCP dialog -- one for LocalTalk and one for the EtherWave. Apart from…

There are also software routers and MacIP gateways, like the old "Apple Internet Router" that you can run on a second, ethernet capable Mac to do this - but you don't really want t…

The Farallon EtherWave is a "full TCP/IP" device and should act like a conventional ethernet adapter. They're a bit on the slow side, but adequate for basic use with a Plus or SE. …

The problem is that LocalTalk can't "do" tcp/ip (the "internet" protocol) - it can only handle AppleTalk and that's it.
MacTCP allows you to work around this limitation by wrappin…
Did you say you got a G3 card in the machine. That takes a peice of software to run and if the HD is messed up nothings going to happen.

I also back the upgrade to the 1400c active matrix screen! I had one of each and the active is far superior.
The only advantage the CS has is that it's hard for people to see what…
This evening I read with some surprise that the cousin of the 2400c, the 3400c, can use and charge the battery from a PB 190/ 5300, which is, of course, a NiMh battery rather than …

Thanks JRL.
I took your advice and did the alcohol wash and pram battery replacement.
I was able, with the help of a friend, to locate a cap with the value I needed. I didn't…
Nice score - welcome to the club! Can't say I've ever heard of an 840AV that didn't come with a CD drive, unless the blanking plate is wrong.
I picked up a very sick 840AV a coup…

When using modern disks with built-in active termination, you can usually ignore Apple's termination advice for the IIfx. Active termination provides similar functionality to Apple…
Turn off your caps lock please.
Congratulations on your success. If you could put up some photos and details of the modifications you had to make, that would be terrific.
A full cap replacement (as well as a good rubbing alcohol scrub where the battery leaked and a new battery as well) should do the trick. In turn, the SE FDHD will last for a very l…
I think when Macs shifted to the "New World" ROM-in-RAM, support for machines newer than the OS - i.e. 9.1 on later model G4s - was provided by new Mac OS ROM files. So Trash is ba…

Have you bothered to replace the CPU card with another 604/e/ev to see if it's the CPU Card?
Click to expand...
No, because I don't have another CPU card. This 9500 came from f…

No. My machine, as far as I know, has the stock 604 @ 200 MHz processor card.
