If anyone can help me with this, it would be much appreciated.
equipment:
Mac G4 running Leopard
Dell optiplex running XP
Linksys wireless adapter (for internet ... connected to the dell)
Netopia cayman modem/router (to network the computers)
Ok, here we go. I have been going nuts trying to figure this out and haven't got much help. I am trying to network the two computers so that my Mac can use the internet connection from the dell. I have everything connected but the Dell does not show a default gateway to allow me access to the Netopia while the Mac does allow me access. In the network places it shows that it is connected and the ethernet port is blinking. Does this sound like it could be affecting my goal? Does anyone know where I can begin to accomplish this?
Thank you in advance
