Hi All

If I use Network Switch I cannot get a reliable VPC network connection as I
switch frequently from wired and wireless networks.

So I thought I would use shared networking but while I can see the network
reliably under this method I get DNS error messages when web browsing under
VPC.

Does anyone have any ideas if this is a known issue or I am just unlucky, or
even better has a fix?

Cheers.

Robin

Shared Networking was working for me until I changed ISPs. My new ISP setup
(in Mac OS X) has DNS addresses in Network Prefs. It seems to get the
networking working in the VPC, I have to "Enable DNS" (Win 98 Network
Control Panel) and enter the same DNS addresses as the OS X Network Prefs.

This is the only way I can seem to get the VPC internet working again.
Anyone got any suggestions?

Thanks,
Anthony
