Alemaker Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Hi, Installed 10.4.6 beautifully!!! However; 1 slight problem. When I connect my cat 5 cable to the linksys router; the o.s. locks up. Disconnect and reboot;everythings fine. Try to reconnect-lock up;sometimes I can get it to do a netdiag b4 locking up. It sees my internal broadcomm nic;sees the internet;then;BANG locks up. Have even gotten the black screen with blinking cursor??? A newbie; but am I missing something here? A setting??? Really strange, Any help would be appreciated(I'm way new to this-but it installed great)!1 Aklemaker Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/24104-freeze-on-connect-to-innternet/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
