Please help this lost little puppy.
Initially with this:
Broadband service (Telewest) coming into cable modem. I would like to connect this badboy to my Mac G4 (OSX 10.3.9) via ethernet. sounds awefully simple. but can anybody walk me through the settings? (DHCP etc.) i seem to be having no joy. pop-up keeps telling me connection cannot be found (or words to that effect). rather annoying now.
Then in time:
Would like to (again) connect Mac hard-wired into modem and/or router, as plans are to have a PC wirelessly connected in a diff part of the house. best way? ditch the modem altogether and get an ADSL router? suggestions please. and setting walk-throughs if poss.
and be clear as poss. ain't stoopid but i need to be sure. many thanks.
