Hi guys,
I have a couple of questions:
I'm having problems getting my new G3/333 iMac to connect to the internet.
I'm connecting via a router (DGL-4300) and after rebooting the iMac got a good IP (192.168.0.160). It is able to connect to other computers on the home LAN and display webpages within the LAN. However, outside of the LAN I'm not able to connect, either by name or IP. (I reconnected the cable to the orginal Win computer and it's connecting to the net normally under a different IP - Mac is still refusing, however.)
Right now I'm downloading stuff to a local comp and then sending it to the iMac, but that's kind of a hassle. Its setup as DHCP.
My second question is I've had some fun so far with the iMac and am thinking about getting a Mac also. (The G3 is going to my folks.) Is it true native 9.2 is limited to pre-G5 macs? Will 9.2 have problems with too much memory? (Like 1gb - Ideally I'd like to set it up dual boot with OS X.)
Thanks!
