I just got a new DSL router (ZyXel 645) with a static IP. I set up all the TCP/IP settings on my G4 AGP 450 and when I connect the two with an ethernet cord, there's no link light- an no network. Opening up Network Utility says the Link is inactive and the ip address = 0.0.0.0.
If I plug my TiBook 500 into the router w/ the exact same settings, everything works perfectly.
I thought the 450 maybe having an ethernet auto-negotiate duplexing issue, so I ran a couple of ifconfing en0 commands - all ended in "Operation not permitted" errors.
I can connect the TiBook & the G4 450 and transfer files through ethernet. So I know the port is functional.
Has anyone experienced and similar problem & found a solution?
