I have been trying to configure an ENET/100 for use on a powerpc mac. The ethernet device config utility for the mac doesn't work (it opens and then immediately closes) so I tried to conficgure on a XP system. The configuration seems to work (the device can be located and appears to have the proper IP address. Even so, there is a communication problem. The troubleshooting utility shows that there is a problem with the IP address. I've been going in corcles with this. The computer is directly connected to the device so I don't have to worry about network issues.

Hello,
Here are a few links dealing with setting the ENET/100 up.

Have you seen these pages before and have you carried out the steps involved?

Thanks. I just got it to work. I encountered several problems but the major one was that I neglected to assign a subnet address. After that, I learned that the troubleshooting utility on my mac was using an incorrect host name (that I must have assigned). When I used the proper IP address things worked fine.
I also learned that the interface won't work unless it is already on when I start Labview.
