Hi all,
first of all,my regular machine is a pc so i'm troubleshooting someone elses lappy.
Its an ibook with OSX Version10.4.11
It cannot connect to a DSL router either via etherent or airport.
The setup in the router doesnt show it as connected/issued with a dhcp address.
I browsed to network utility>info and viewed the various interfaces i.e for the aircard and also the ethernet and they both show nonsensical ip addresses.
I did some research and found unix type commands to be issued via the termnial window to flush dns cache ??
I did that and it made no difference.
I suspect the lappy might have picked up these idiot ip's during a router resynch.
I need to flush them and then setup permannent dhcp ip's in the router for both interfaces..
So how do i clear the ip's?
thanks
jo
