Problem with W98 seeing ethernet
Setup:
radio broadband via OSBridge connected to ethernet hub; one hub connection to Intellon ethernet over mains (wireless won't go through our walls); scenario 1: laptop running 98 with xircom PCMCIA ethernet card booted whilst connected to local hub (not same as above) which is connected to mains ethernet. RESULT no problem. scenario 2: laptop ditto booted without ethernet connection; connection made when OS running. RESULT link not established (no lights on card). scenario 3: laptop ditto booted with direct connection to mains ethernet; RESULT link established. scenario 4: different laptop with XPHome and integral ethernet port connected directly to mains ethernet; RESULT no problem. My aim is to connect the 98 laptop to the internet via direct mains ethernet. Help please :-( -- I wonder what Shrodinger called his cat?
