Network settings says i'm connected, but my ISP cannot connect automatically. I have a cable modem btw .. no wireless internet. I clicked continue and then it says enter you client ID for DHCP.

Okay, but till then? There has to be some way to have internet while having an ethernet cord. I bought it for college mostly which has wifi btw. i don't need wireless at home Dylan6405 Posted at 7:28 pm on Aug. 10, 2008 mac ftw!
