zenchicken Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Just installed 10.4.8 from the good ISO and all working good except Internet! My NIC is apparently recognized (Marvell 88E8053 PCI-E Gb LAN controller) but I can't connect to the internet or see other computers on my network. I'm connecting to a D-Link DSL-504T router, using DHCP doesn't give me an IP. Doing it manually gives me a "green orb" in the Network Preferences but no Internet or Lan connectivity either. Can't even ping the router! It was working perfectly fine with 10.4.7... Booting the same computer into Win XP works just fine with DHCP... What am I missing?

Mac OSX Coder Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Luckily for you, somebody already did something like this. I don't know if this will work for YOUR motherboard, but I do have the same marvell, and once I did the update it worked fine for me. You should backup and try, no gurantees but try it Thanks to planetbeing! http://forum.insanelymac.com/inde x.php?showtopic=12933&hl=LAN - P.S.

zenchicken Posted November 10, 2006 Author Share Posted November 10, 2006 Thank you very much for the answer (and welcome back!). Unfortunately this did not work for me... does nothing. "Built In Ethernet" still not working.

Mac OSX Coder Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 do you have one ethernet port or two? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/32776-lan-card-recognized-but-no-internet/#findComment-230951 Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenchicken Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 One. Am now considering throwing in a PCI Realtek network adapter... that should do the trick Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/32776-lan-card-recognized-but-no-internet/#findComment-231045 Share on other sites More sharing options...
