I have never managed to connect my RiscPC to my BT broad
band connection. I bought a network card and all, but try
as I may, I can't get the thing to work. I must be
technically to incompetent and I'm the best there is
around here, so I can't go for help.
Surely the supplier of the network card would help by phone?
When I first went down the network line I had all sorts of
problems, and Matt at STD spent huge amounts of time on the
phone with me.
At the end of the day, though, it came down to the OS:
RO3.60 was supposed to do networking, but just refused.
I bought some used 3.70 ROMs from CJE and it just worked.
Since then I have just plugged in another three RPCs
(running 4.02 or 3.70) into the network.
It has taken me around 5 mins to set each machine up,
basicly copying the settings from another machine, but
ensuring that the new machine has a unique IP address and
name.
Not quite plug and play, but almost.
