okimasa Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Yesterday, I got Leopard working in Safe Boot, and now its working in normal boot. It looks like its working fine now, but I can't be sure, guess I'll deal with any problems when I come to them. Anyway, right now I'm trying to connect to the internet on it with an Ethernet cable and a DSL box. The cable or DSL box work just fine in Vista on the same computer, and on my old desktop too, so that's not the problem. Ok, so I go to System Preferences, Network and try to add a PPPoE service to that list on the left side of the window. It doesn't appear. I press assist me, then click diagnostics and it says under Network status (for all Ethernet, Network Settings, ISP, Internet and server) that they have failed. Any ideas? All help is welcome!

enli Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 You have to be more specific when you ask for any help. Give us more details about your ethernet card / inbuilt integrated lan card.

okimasa Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 Hi, Sorry for not being more specific, I'm sort of a noob here! System Profiler says Airport Card - no information found Firewall - Mode: Allow all incoming connections Locations - Active Location: Yes Services: 6 to 4: Type: 6to4 BSD Device Name: stf0 IPv6: Configuration Method: 6to4 Modems - No information found Volumes - home autofs /home net autofs /net Like I was saying, I'm a noob at this, so when it comes to the Ethernet card, I'm not sure exactly what it is, but I found some information on the "Network Card" that looks helpful LAN: Gigabit Ethernet, Wake-on-LAN ready Modem: 56K ITU V.92 modem with PTT approval; Wake-on-Ring ready I'm sorry, this is about all the information I can give... I'm starting to get worn out with a combination of this and late nights dealing with work projects Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/138052-ethernet-connection/#findComment-977184 Share on other sites More sharing options...
