How do I set up networking in Mac OS 8.5? I have a rather complex set up, but it works with my Windows computer. I have a modem, connected via ethernet to a router, connected via wifi to an extender, which provides an ethernet port:
The only tool I have that I know how to use to test the network is Internet Exploder:
Here are the control panel items I have available in this fresh install of Mac OS 8.5:
Here are the settings I attempted to use. There was no "ethernet" setting, so I used the one called "PPP":
The computer is a Performa 6230CD with a Comm Slot ethernet card, with the LAN cable plugged into the wifi extender. What do I do? How do I even start to poke around the network if all I have on the other end is an Asus router running Padavan Linux, a NAS, and a lot of Windows computers? My end goal is to connect to FTP servers from the Mac.
