mantonr Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 My friend has just bought a new powerbook and it is fantastic - excellent stuff Now he wants to put internet on it. he has ntl but unfortunately has a USB connector which is making life difficult. The drivers that he needs are only available for windows. How do we do this, there must be a way? Plz no mac sucks or anything like that.

steve burnell Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 which modem is it? the slim laydown sliver modem? if it is does the mac have a ethernet port? just use that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mantonr Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 no its a pace set top box. the mac does have an ethernet port, but this guy only has USB broadband. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
godmode117 Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 i guess he could do heavy research and try and find the drivers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve burnell Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 dig round the back of the pace box, i'm sure all model's of the pace set top boxes have ethernet sockets, mine does Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mantonr Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 thanks for ur replies i think we have managed to sort this out. the guy has finally realised that he does infact have an ethernet option and is using that. though now he can't find his PIN and stuff to authorise himself. You never know he might actually get this working by about next year!lol thanks again for ur replies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
