Matt, If it's any consolation, I can confirm the symptom. Although diald would kick in correctly on the gateway machine, and although the rest my workstations could then correctly access internet through the gateway machine, diald would not kick in if it was the workstation trying to get out.

Re: Dual Celerons

1998-06-05 Thread Scott Tyson
I know 2 people who are running 266 Celeron chips at 400/100 without any problems under win95/NT. The lack of L2 cache makes these chips extremely friendly to over clocking. If your not going to overclock the Celeron it's not worth the $ since the lack of L2 cache makes them weak performers.

The 3C905B-TX has a different chipset on it than the 3C905-TX does, consequently making 4.2 and 5.0's drivers both incompatible. I haven't tried 5.1 yet, so I have no idea if it has the new driver or not. Anyhow, you can still get the card working by getting Donald Becker's newest 3c59x.c
