| Issue with Ethernet under 7.5.5 |
Posted by: Retro Dump on 2024-01-28 12:13:06
I have a Performa 575 with a comm slot ethernet card.
Everything works under OS 8.1 without issue.
Under System 7.5 I can't get a connection though. I've updated to 7.5.5 and updated Open Transport to 1.1.2. Nothing.
Any thought would be appreciated.
Thanks. |

What sort of "connection?" |

What sort of "connection?" Sorry, I should have been more specific.
Connecting to my home network so I can FTP files from my NAS with Fetch.
Under 8.1, its as simple as setting the connection type to Ethernet using DHCP in the TCP/IP control panel.
Doing the same under 7.5.5 does not work. It doesn't appear that it is connecting to my router. |

Does AFP work? |

Solved!
Turns out I was missing the "Apple Ethernet CS" extension under 7.5.5 for whatever reason. I copied it over from the 8.1 installation and everything seems to be working now.
Thanks to both of you who tried to help! |
