Sup guys, this has nothing to do with EQ. Just a prob i am haveing now with my Upgraded macs to panther. Wondering if anyone has a solution. I own G4 dual 1.25 and G4 1ghz, and just upgraded them to 10.3 Now i lost the ability to have both macs on my router. When one is installed i can connect to the net just fine. But when both are connected they are haveing DHCP problems. Keeps telling me that i need to connect my ethernet wires. But thing is i dont have air port station or cards in them, so the DHCP fix on the apple boards arent helping me. Now when i had 10.2.8 running on both macs, i had no prob what so ever. Either leads me to think the lynksys router needs a firmware update for panther, or panther need to fix this bug. Anyone else haveing trouble like this? or know a solution? I tried all my little tricks with DHCP, and non are working. <img src=http://65.104.121.87/portalvbvs/Raginig.gif target=_blank> </img>

I have seen issues like this after updates where settings for the router have been corrupted in the process of the update. I would suggest first making sure it is set to autonegotiate just to save yourself some hassle. If it is and you still have issues then I would set it up from scratch, if your still having issues then I would contact Linksys for any possible updates or known issues. If your having issues after that contact Apple with your 90days of support on that 10.3 software you purchased.

Ya i have done all that, but its not the router. Just did a ton of reading on the apple boards, and it seems that panther is haveing the same problems the first 10.2.8 update did. And found tons of diccussions on the apple boards, that people are haveing the same problems as me. So guess i just have to wait it out now till someone finds the problems and knows how to fix it. Far as i know apple has issued a update for panther, but dunno when its comming out now. <img src=http://65.104.121.87/portalvbvs/Raginig.gif target=_blank> </img>

If you have not called Apple I would suggest doing so just to make sure that there is not something they can do for you that is not on the boards. It is odd... If I come across anything that will help ill let you know.

Ya prob gonna call tonight and see whats up. But if anyone else runs across issues let me know, more info i can get the better i can track down the problem. Thanks <img src=http://65.104.121.87/portalvbvs/Raginig.gif target=_blank> </img>

10.3 was faster at first, but lately it has been as low as shit on a cold day. lots of random freezes and slowdowns that last as long as 2 minutes, brograms not launching (not responding). XCode crashing on me... seems like they pushed this out the door too early.

Did you do an archive install or a straight upgrade?

Straight upgrade. Was no need to archive anything, since the HD i use for OSX has nothing important on it to be archived. Dont store anything on my OS HD, due to past issues where i lose a HD and everything with it. Main mac is G4 dual 1.25ghz 1.25 ram 2 Seagate 30gig SCSI 1 Seagate 80gig ATA 1 Seageta 40gig ATA So i have one scsi as my main HD for OSX and apps. Other HDs are where i store everything. Just glad my ATTO card still worked after the install. <img src=http://65.104.121.87/portalvbvs/Raginig.gif target=_blank> </img>

Archive stores your user preferences and installs a clean copy of the OS with your preferences. Doesn't touch your files. Many people have had issues in the past with straight upgrades. I always prefer an archive installation. It preserves your settings and takes up a tiny bit more hard drive but you know there was no issues replacing old OS files. If you have the spare space on the drive it might be worth a shot.

Well only reason i dont do archive installs anymore is in 10.1.6 to 10.2 and has the most amazing problems. Got double icons on desktop, kernal panics out the ass etc.. but that might have been 10.2 problems. This upgrade from 10.2.8 to 10.3 was smooth as hell, and i have no problems at all. Everything is running smooth and fast on my macs. All adobe programs are running a ton better. Only problem is the DHCP when two macs are hooked up to the router. But when only one is hooked up its perfect. But here is a link and you will see others haveing the same problem as me. http://discussions.info.apple.com/WebX?14@241.BbXqaMjpiDJ.3@.599b4611 But i agree with cads, i think they pushed it out to fast. That whole prob with 10.2.8 and being pulled off the web site a few weeks ago must have been a omen!!!! <img src=http://65.104.121.87/portalvbvs/Raginig.gif target=_blank> </img>

Vance if you can post your system log file I may be able to help.  There are threads popping up at macfixit and appletechs from ISP's having this issue as well. _______________________________________________ <a href="http://www.magelo.com/eq_view_profile.html?num=768984">Can Dual Wield AND carry a dozen donuts.</a>- Give up that bitter black urine men call coffee.

I think your computer may have kept the “applegmacethernet.kext” file when it shouldnt have. If you know how to extract from the installer replace this file.  It is located in System/Library/Extensions. _______________________________________________ <a href="http://www.magelo.com/eq_view_profile.html?num=768984">Can Dual Wield AND carry a dozen donuts.</a>- Give up that bitter black urine men call coffee.

I will be watching the board to see how it goes Vance<img src="/forums/images/gpicons/face_wink.gif"> <A target=_Blank href="http://www.magelo.com/eq_view_profile.html?num=819768"> Clarity </A>

Ya hold off till this is fixed Clarity, seems like more and more people are having network/DHCP/net problems as the days go on. Havent had a chance to call apple yet, but called some old collage buddies on this prob. They more mac nuts then me and we are all stumped. So if your system is running fine with 10.2.8 stick with it for now. My guess is a week or so a fix will come out. Took about that long when the first 10.2.8 prob occured with this simular problem. <img src=http://65.104.121.87/portalvbvs/Raginig.gif target=_blank> </img>
