Hello everyone! Cobalt reporting in from the trenches after having been AWOL for awhile... :b&w:
I recently acquired a PowerBook 520 from eBay (around the same time oneboyarmy got his 520c coincidentally) and have been having fun playing Spelunx and downloading other old games, trying to work around the constraint of its 105.1 MB HDD, and basking in its glorious black-and-white imperfect screen :b&w: . It has 12.3 MB of RAM plus Connectix RAM Doubler v2.0.1.
QUESTION:
After messing around with the internet, I am now unable to acquire an IP address! :'( I connect to the internet through what I'm pretty sure is an AAUI-15 to RJ-45 transceiver. I tried two other ones I have (all different brands) but they don't work! Maybe I downloaded too much and the AAUI-15 port broke? I tried messing around with extensions but can't seem to get back online xx(
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
P.S.
I may not reply or be able to do further troubleshooting until the weekend.
