Imac network problem in xp

my imac is unable to connect to wifi in xp whereas it is able to connect in mac . Another interesting point is that this machine connects to wifi in another place i.e in another network in win xp .

You might want to ask this in the bootcamp forum. You might get a faster response.

Imac Networking Problems

I'm attempting to hook up my iMac to my Linksys wireless router, however whenever I attempt to enable security settings on the network, I lose my internet connection and the I have limited connectivity. It works fine on an open network, but no matter what I tried it hasn't worked. I know the password is correct. I'm using a hex password for security, just so you know. Any suggestions.
iMac G5 2 GHz Processor Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Ok, this is the statement I get from my network settings in system preferences, "Airport is connected to the network <network name>. Airport has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet." I do not know how to fix this specifically. Is this something I simply need to adjust in my router setup, or a setting on my airport.
I apologize for not understanding everything, as wireless networking is still sort of new to me.

Time Machine and Time Capsule - Failing with Network Problem

My problems with TM/TC have been ongoing for a couple of months now and I am going round in circles - need help.
This is the second post I have made, the first got lost in people suggesting the obvious - so I will try to be a little more specific if I can.
I will detail the current state first - i.e. where I am now - after I will list what I have done so far to get to this point.
Currently, my iMac (intel) is directly connected by Ethernet 1GB to the Time Capsule. The TC is then connected to a Netgear router which in turn is connected to Internet.
I have no network problems at all - internet connection is fine. the Netgear Router has the latest firmware version and is working fine. The porblems i have are nothing to do with this.
The time Capsule is in Bridge mode and getting a reserved dhcp IP address from the Netgear router.
The Time Capsule has been fully reset - i.e. power cable out, hold the reset button, plug in power cable (spark, spark), hold reset button, fast blink for 20 seconds or so, light goes out, release button.
I have re-applied the latest Time Capsule firmware.
I have renamed the disk on the Time Capsule.
I have renamed my iMac and deleted all the time capsule entries from Keychain.
I have re-installed Mac OSX and re-updated to the latest 10.5.6 release.
At the moment I have kicked off a backup with a lot of large files - like music folder, video folder etc excluded. I also have parallels and have excluded the disk image. I have 1 other 50GB disk image which is also excluded.
I am expecting the first initial backup will complete successfully.
I will then remove music and video from exclusions and allow them to backup. I am expecting this will complete no problem. (I do this because the upcoming problem will happen if I move away from the machine - and I dont want to sit there for 2 days).
So up to this point TM and TC have performed flawlessly. The issue that follows started happening before the 10.5.6 update after backing up with no issues for months. At this point I will be able to use TM to browse the backup and restore files. I will be able to mount the sparse bundle and browse files. Spotlight reports no issues and indexes quickly.
If I leave my machine after a successful backup and the hourly update kicks in it will fail with 'A Network problem' basically saying the backup has filed because of a network problem, but is not any more specific, logs show far too much to put the whole thing here, but the following is an excerpt

It goes on and on and is repeated every hour. For each one I get an error message on screen saying backup failed due to a network error. However I have tried a manual download over the same period set at an extremely slow rate so that it was downloading during this time and it showed no errors. I.e. the network connection from imac, through TC to netgear and out to internet - and monitored this while time machine showed these errors (i.e. at the same time) and this showed no connection problems at all and completed succesfully.
I know TM uses an internal address to do backups, but uses the same cable and network card to get the job done. I am simply removing the cable as a source of issue although I have also replaced this making no difference.
Applecare are involved and have so far been sent 2 sets of logs and so far have not been able to find the cause. New TC is on its way to try that, although they think it is something on the imac that is causing this.
Sleep mode is turned off although screen sleep is on. The tick is not in the box for putting hard drives to sleep whenever possible.
Now, after this has happened, and back at the machine. I restart both imac and TC. Try running a backup, spotlight starts to re-index - i.e. will mount the backup volume and start the index process, gets to about 90% then fails - again excerpts from log

Am I the only one having these problems? any help from anybody please...

Got the same problem with a 3 months old TC.
The replacement TC, does it work now flawless?

Screen Sharing/network problem seems confined to 1 volume. What's the fix?

I am having a networking problem on one of the volumes of my multi-volumed, three-Mac local area network, and I need a networking guru to identify the specific software file(s), application(s), or system configuration that is the cause of the problem. I have already spent several hours checking and re-checking the various hardware and system preference settings involved, and I have narrowed the problem down to a software corruption issue and/or system configuration issue on one volume.
I now need someone to identify specifically what the nature of the problem is, and how to eliminate it. I am not looking for a sledgehammer solution that says I should re-install all of the Mac OS X software on the problem volume. That may be held in reserve as a last resort. I'm looking for a more elegant approach, one that points out the specific corrupt files to remove without disturbing everything else.
Here's some background to set the context. I have a MacBook Pro laptop; a PowerMac iMac G5; and a PowerMac G4 hooked up in a network. All are running Leopard 10.5.8. All have file sharing and screen sharing enabled. Besides being able to connect to each other using registered users, my goal here is for each of the Macs to be able to share the screen of the others upon my demand. Since each of the 3 Macs can theoretically share the screens of the other 2, that makes a total of six possible connections. Five succeed; one does not. That's the problem. I am trying to determine why the iMac G5 cannot share the screen of the MacBook Pro.
The iMac G5 has no problem sharing the screen of the PowerMac G4. That connection is fast and immediate. But, every time that I hit the Share Screen button on the iMac G5 to try to connect to the MacBook Pro, I get a window with the blue barber pole spinning for two or three minutes as it is allegedly "Connecting to Mac Book Pro," followed by a window with a headline telling me that "Connection Failed to MacBook Pro." The text within that window goes on to say: "Please make sure that Screen Sharing (in the Sharing section of System Preferences) is enabled on the computer to which you are attempting to connect. Also make sure that your network connection is working properly."
Well, as I indicated, the PowerMac G4 has no problem sharing the screen of the MacBook Pro, so the Screen Sharing settings on the laptop are correct; and the iMac G5 can share the screen of the PowerMac G4, so its network connection is working properly in that regard. It is only in regards to sharing the screen of the MacBook Pro that the iMac G5 is not working properly.
The reason why I say that the issue must be unique to the one volume in question, let's call it "iMacG5 Music," is that another Leopard volume on the same computer has no problem whatsoever in sharing the screen of the MacBook Pro. Whenever I boot up in that volume, let's call it "iMacG5 JMB," it makes a network connection with a registered user name immediately, and it is able to share the screen of the MacBook Pro within a second of my issuing the command. In sharp contrast to the success of the iMacG5 JMB volume, the iMacG5 Music is unacceptably slow (several minutes slow!) in making a network connection with the MacBook Pro, and it always fails to share the screen of the MacBook Pro, preferring instead to take about three minutes to attempt the connection, before announcing its failure.
Since the iMacG5 Music volume makes an immediate network connection to the PowerMac G4, as well as sharing the screen of the PowerMac G4 the moment I ask it to, I have concluded that the hardware of the iMac G5 is just fine. The problem seems confined to the system software and/or associated networking files that are unique to the iMacG5 Music volume. I just don't know what those files could be, or where the problem lies, so I've issued this call for help.
Let me add one more little twist to this puzzle which baffles me even more. I use external LaCie Firewire drives as clone backups of my Macs. As part of my trouble-shooting process, I booted up from the cloned versions of the iMacG5 JMB volume and the iMacG5 Music volume. What I learned surprised me!
The iMacG5 JMB clone worked just fine in making a fast network connection to the MacBook Pro, as well as sharing the screen of the MacBook Pro. I expected that. What I did not expect was that the iMacG5 Music clone was also able to make a fast network to the MacBook Pro, as well as share its screen!
Yes, that's right. It's weird! Screen sharing works OK when I start-up from the clone of the iMacG5 Music volume, but it does not succeed when I boot up on the source itself! I was surprised to find that out, but I'm glad I did.
(Over the past few days since I executed the last clone, I did use Drive Genius to de-frag the source volume, and maybe that has contributed to the problem I am now encountering. But it's hard to say, since nothing else seems to be amiss.)
One solution, I suppose, would be to sync the clone back to the source. But, before I do that, I'm just wondering if anyone has a clue as to the nature of this problem on the source volume and what I might do to remedy it—short of re-installing the system software or restoring from the clone. Anyone have any insight to this problem?

CORRECTION #2:
Ignore the previous "CORRECTION" post.
Oops, excuse me, I wrote that sentence correctly the first time.
I was trying to point out that the ability of the iMac G5 computer to connect quickly and effectively to the PowerMac G4 when booted up into the iMacG5 Music volume was an indication (to me, anyway) that there is nothing wrong with the computer's hardware, nor its network connection ability, but that the problem lay somewhere in the files/settings used to connect to the MacBook Pro, which it cannot accomplish.
This is what happens when I get engrossed in one of these technical morasses and it ***** me into its vortex all through the night... time for bed.

Time Machine spends hours partially backing up and then fails with "Time Machine couldn't complete the backup due to a network problem." Tried suggestions I've seen on the forum.

Time Machine spends hours partially backing up and then fails with "Time Machine couldn't complete the backup due to a network problem." I've tried various suggestions I've seen on the forum but nothing has worked. TIme Machine worked fine for the last two years and just suddenly started having this problem every time. The only thing that was a little different is that the computer was off for a week while on vacation and then I added a large amount (20 GB) of photos. Now the requested backup size is 82GB, which is large, and process proceeds very slowly for 2-3 hours before failing with the message mentioned. I have more than enough available backup storage space for it. Before failing, Time Machine has backed up no more than 12GB or so of the backup. It fails during different files each time.
I've turned off the computer sleep feature, and I've checked that the NAS is set to never automatically power down. I normally backup over Wi-Fi, but I've also tried connecting to Ethernet and it still has the same problem. It's odd because I also have a MacBook Pro that is still backing up fine to the same NAS using the MacBook's Time Machine.
I am using an iMac with OS X 10.6.8 and an Iomega StorCenter ix2-200 NAS.
I have system logs that I can share if helpful. The logged messages vary a bit from run to run, but here are some messages that I've been seeing:
I always get this message near the beginning of the backup:
Event store UUIDs don't match for volume: Macintosh HD
I've gotten this messsage a number of times:

That looks like a problem was found with the file system (data) on the TM disk. I don't know the details, but OSX tried to recover it from the journal, and found extra data on the drive. Likely a result of the incompatibility mentioned above.

ASP_TCP Disconnect: triggering reconnect by bumping reconnTrigger from curr value 0 on so 0x9d00b44
Something caused a disconnect. Can't tell from the log what it was.
I doubt it's a problem with something in OSX being damaged or corrupted, but reinstalling OSX isn't a major hassle, so might be worth a try.
To be incompatible with Snow Leopard, this NAS must be at least a couple of years old. It may be beginning to fail.
Contact the maker. See if there's an update to make it compatible with Snow Leopard. If so, that might fix it.
If not, or if that doesn't fix it, see if they have any diagnostics that will shed any light.

Network problem after new OSX update download

Greetings!
I've had a new (late 06) Intel 24" iMac networked wirelessly to my older iMac/cable modem/D-Link router very successfully since October. No problems and seamless set-up through the D-Link online wizard software.
Saturday I noticed an OSX upgrade to 10.4.8 (211mg) and went ahead and did the download on the wireless (Intel) iMac.
Upon restart, however, I have not been able to reconnect to my network. Airport is ON, but choosing my network name returns an error message. I have also attempted to reboot both cable modem and router, and reentered the D-Link wizard to both doublecheck the old network, and set up a new network, but saving these settings seems to fail by not recognizing the device, the router.
One of the error messages (on the wireless iMac) claims that my "settings have been changed by another application" (or to that effect) but does not give any clue as to how to determine what or where.
Also, since attempting to start from scrtch with the router, I no longer seem to get a full signal from the airport -- in Internet Connect, I no longer see a nice row of blue signal lights.
As you may be able to tell, I am new to networking, and the D-Link setup had helped make it simple -- tht is, I bumbled my way through it and was pleased with how well it worked. Now, after the OS update, not having the network is annoying -- and potentilly disastrous, as I need this machine online by Saturday.
Anyone able to give me a gentle hand, or nudge in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!
Bill

Hi again,
Sorry, BDAqua, I didn't see your note. I don't quite understand the last line of your suggestion -- a number greater than the number of CPUs? Not sure what you mean...
Phil, thanks for your note, too.
I believe the answer to your first question is 802.11g -- this is what it was set to.
After trying again to connect, using my old passwords, I was able to see the blue signal strength barss, and the Airport icon flashed on and off a few times, but ultimately the connection attempt failed again every time I tried it.
At this point, I'm no longer confident that my router is sending out a recognizable signal -- is this possible?
Also, in the dialog box in which available networks are usually shown (which has not happened since my original connection in October), today I was faced with a choice I hadn't seen before: 2WIRE736 -- is this likely to be someone else's network (a neighbor's)? I was wondering -- I'd never seen that one before. However, my own network names do not show up for choosing, and when I use Internet Connect to request them (and add WPA Personal and passwords), the connection appears to fail immediately.
At this point, should I attempt an OSX reinstall? Or has something I described made some sense for you?
Again, still very appreciative of all your help and patience with my ignorance.
Bill

Network problems with Apple TV 3 - streaming / home share etc

My setup:
iMac (21", mid-2011) running OS X 10.7.3 and iTunes 10.6
Apple TV 3
Apple Airport Extreme router
BT HomeHub 3
HomeHub is used as a modem (ADSL), wired connection into the Airport Extreme which then provides my wireless network.
Apple TV set up last Friday (launch day). I have it set to use home-sharing with iTunes, and have tried the YouTube channel. Not tried using the iTunes Store direct.
Initially had problems with 'streaming' video from iTunes using home-sharing, buffering either took a VERY long time or simply didn't happen at all. After a reset, updating OS X, iTunes, Airport Extreme firmware etc etc it started to work fairly well. Also tried streaming video direct on the YouTube channel (very fast, no buffering delay at all) and using AirPlay from an iPad (again, no problem).
Tonight, everything appears to be broken. Home sharing from iTunes has taken 2 minutes to buffer 30 seconds of video; YouTube similar; AirPlay from the iPad doesn't appear to be streaming at all.
Have tried re-starting iTunes; re-starting the Airport Extreme; re-starting the Apple TV. Nothing changing.
Help?!

I don't have an answer for this, unfortunately. I've even had my Apple TV replaced (yesterday), and after about an hour of normal operation, it now fails to connect to servers, or connects intermittently and poorly, and it can no longer connect to the iOS Remote app. These are the exact symptoms that prompted the Genius Bar to replace the original unit.
Either there is a basic flaw in Apple TV, or I'm extremely unlucky. All my other Mac and iOS devices have positively no network problems. Very frustrating.
WiFi is provided by a late-model AirPort Extreme.

Upgrading OS Mountain Lion - Network problems

Dear all,
I've upgraded my iMAC last week-end. Good job
But... big network problem with ADSL connexion via ethernet
I've installed a CPL network at home because WI-FI range is blocked by big walls. Then no problem before (Modem Belkin connected on time machine and all devices (apple tv, Imac,...) linked by CPL).
WHen I've installed Moutain Lion, no more possibilities to connect throughout Ethernet (no DHCP renew).
Then I've reloaded a WIFI connexion. No problem at this time since this morning. I need to disconnect and reconnect the connection 4/5 times and It's no stable ?
Do you have an advice ? I really would like to find the stability of a CPL-Ethernet connection.
Thanks

Networking problem from Mac running Leopard to Mac running Yosemite

I have a curious networking problem and I would love some suggestions about what might be causing the problem and how to cure it.
I have a PowerMac G5/1.8DP running Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard with a number of external drives attached that I use as backup for all my RAW files. These are mirrored on three drives.
When I mount the drives on my iMac desktop, running OS X 10.10.1 Yosemite, over a gigabit ethernet network, two things are happening - 1. some of the folders are invisible (although they are actually there and populated on the PowerMac) and 2. spurious, empty, folders with odd names appear on the Yosemite desktop.
I have checked on the PowerMac to see that the folders all contain files - they do - yet over the LAN they appear as empty folders with gobbledygook names. This happens on all my Macs running Yosemite so it appears to be a Yosemite problem, rather than a Leopard problem. To further reinforce that I have also checked the PowerMac from three other Macs, running Tiger and Leopard, and they can see exactly what is on the drives, with no missing folders or oddly named folders.
The images show 1. the folder as it appears on the PowerMac running OS X 10.5.8, with two folders RAW Files 26 and RAW Files 28 highlighted, 2. the same folder seen on the Yosemite desktop with two folders, RAW Files 26 and 28, missing and 3. the same folder on Yosemite with three oddly named empty folders.
I am at a loss to know how to cure it and hope that someone will be able to help.

You can never, never, never transfer any installed version of PSE on any platform. You must always install from scratch on a new machine. By trying to do so you have made more work for yourself. You will need to download and run this:
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
which will not seem to do anything, but is a necessary step to break the links within the program. Then you can go around and manually remove everything related to PSE that you can find, not only from Applications, but also from your username>library>preferences and the library at the top level of your hard drive>application support>adobe. You must go to these locations manually; spotlight will not help you with this type of search.
Then you can reinstall from your original media or from the download here:

10.5.7 and network problems

Hi everyone,
I recently installed 10.5.7 on my iMac and Macbook (late 2008). Whenever I use the internet, it hangs up and I get either a gray screen or the page will not load at all. I did not have this problem when I had 10.5.6 installed, it worked perfectly. I checked my modem settings and the firmware on my router and all are up to date. I know it is not the connection, because I have a Windows computer that connects to the internet with no problems, which leaves me to believe 10.5.7 is the culprit. Can anyone give me some advice or explain to me how to resolve this problem? I am finding myself having to use my Dell Notebook which I don't want to. Thanks for your time, Craig

I'm also having this networking problem, both on a wired and wireless connection. I am almost positive that this stems from the 10.5.7 update and it's incredibly frustrating. I've tried deleting the plist files from the library, adding a new location, assigning a manual IP address and resetting my network hardware, nothing has helped.
Hopefully Apple will realize this soon, in the meantime I'm going to downgrade to 10.5.6.... what a pain..
I just hope those PC people don't find out about this!

Small but interesting networking problem

Hi all,
This is a small, but quite interesting networking problem, I'd like to get solved.
The network situation is as follows:
- A Netgear Router with WLAN
- A Powerbook G4 with Tiger and both Ethernet and AP connection
- A Powerbook Pismo with MacOS 9.01. and a wireless Ethernet Bridge
- A IMac with Panther and AP connection
- A PowerMac 4400/200 with MacOS 8.6 and Ethernet connection
All Macs are able to access Internet via DSL.
The PBs and the IMac can access each other's HDs omnidirectional.
And here's the problem:
The 4400 can access the G4-HD, but the G4 can't access the 4400.
By the way, the 4400 is simply used to adress a printer, but doesn't work as print server by today's meaning. I just transfer files and get it printed from the 4400.
(Yes, I could buy a cheap printer for each of the other Macs or even a network printer, but don't want to do so because of my very low printing volume
IMO, my small problem is related to MacOS 8.6, but I've no idea how to deal with.
So, this is a real nice Mac nut for the wise guys
Thanks,
Sven

RE: Which Mac can be a File Server under what circumstances:
To make way for the upcoming Intel Macs, AppleTalk and TCP/IP drivers for 10.4 were modified.
File Sharing via AppleTalk:
7.5.3 through 10.3 can share their files via AppleTalk.
10.4 cannot share its files via AppleTalk, and cannot mount drives from Macs that only want to share via AppleTalk. (AppleTalk printing in 10.4 is still supported.)
File Sharing via TCP/IP:
OS 9 and later can share its files via TCP/IP.
7.5.3 and later can mount other Mac's files on its desktop via TCP/IP if you use the "Server IP Address" button in the AppleShare Chooser Extension.
There is a third-party solution for 7.5.3 through 8.6, but it is not free.
http://www.opendoor.com/shareway/
Executive Summary:
The scenario that always works is to start from the older, pre-9 Mac, and mount the 10.4 Mac's shared drives or shared folder on the older Mac by using the "Server IP Address" button in the Chooser.
The relevant (but very dense) article is this one:
301183- Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: "Connection failed" error when connecting to an AFP server
The 10.4.9 problem was an error introduced in the 10.4.9 update. I do not believe Apple intended it to stop working with that update.

Imac network printing

Just got an imac- new to the mac world. Installed my HP4350 printer on the imac no problem. Question: Can I make the HP4350 a shared or network printer with a Windows7 pc?

You can share a printer connected to the Mac via USB cable to a Windows 7 computer.
On the iMac, open System Preferences > Sharing and tick the Printer Sharing box. This is all you need to do on the Mac.
On Windows 7, I recommend you install Apple's Bonjour Print Services for Windows. This will help with Windows finding the shared printer on your network and adding the queue.

WiFi and other networking problems (MacBook Air)

Like many others on these forums, I’m having terrible problems with network connections on my MacBook Air 11-inch (Mid 2011, running Lion 10.7.3).
WiFi connections are very unreliable, and often impossible to establish.
On my home network I can ‘force’ the MBAir to connect by manually configuring TCP/IP, and DNS settings. I shouldn’t have to do this.
I do not have (and have never had) problems establishing WiFi connections on all the other Macs that are used on our home network (iMac, and MacBook running SnowLeopard, and an old PowerMac that runs Tiger; I also occasionally use my University MacBookPro (10.6.7) without any problems. So this issue is clearly not network related.
If I take the MBAir out on the road (which is why I bought it) then I invariably struggle and usually fail to establish a WiFi connection, even in my University, where the WiFi network functions with my MacBookPro.
My problems with the MBAir are not however confined to WiFi.
Networking with an Ethernet-USB link is equally unreliable. Occasionally the MBAir appears on network but then fails to connect to any servers. Even when it does appear to connect the network, I’m unable to connect/share the MBAir from any other of my Macs. Ethernet cable and network communications are all trouble-free with my University iMac and MacBookPro.
I’m really disappointed with my MacBook Air what’s going on Apple?!
I’ve tried deleting the usual system preference files (com.apple.airport.- , -.network, etc.) but not much has changed. Now at a loss at what to try next .... advice welcomed.

Whatever was causing my endless problems has been resolved. I was very close to returning my new MacBookAir, as nothing would work with respect to networking; WiFi or Ethernet-USB.
As a last resort I reinstalled Lion using the cmd-R - and yipee all networking problems have disappeared.
The MBAir now works just fine, I can chop and change WiFi connections when roaming without problems, and my ethernet-USB connection allows me to interact with my University network.
My solution - reinstall Lion!

Dell PC Not Visible to iMac Network

I have a home network using Airport consisting of an iMac G5 (10.4.5), an eMac G4 (10.3.9), and a Dell Laptop (Windows XP). I am sharing an internet connection from the iMac. File sharing is enabled on all computers and works fine except that the Dell is not visible in the Finder Network or Workgroup window. The Dell DOES automatically become visible in the eMac's Finder window and I can connect and share files on the Dell using the eMac so I know the PC is configured correctly. Sharing Services on the iMac have Personal File Sharing, Windows Sharing, Personal Web Sharing, and Printer Sharing enabled. I have tried to connect to the Dell through the iMac by using the Connect to Server route but I get an error each time.
Anyone have an idea why I can't connect to the Dell on one computer but not the other?
Thanks.
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5) eMac (10.3.9), Dell Inspiron (XP)

Try setting IPv6 to "off" in the System Preferences Network pane on your Tiger computer. I have copied and pasted the instructions from MacFixIt below:
"In order to change this setting, open System Preferences and click on your currently used interface (Ethernet, AirPort, etc.). Click on the TCP/IP settings for the interface -- at the bottom if you see a button which says 'Configure IPv6...' click that and set it to "Off." Press the Apply Now button."
This has been reported to solve many network problems in Tiger.

Ethernet Network Problem

Hi guys,
I usually post my questions under the iMac and MacBook Pro section but this time I'm posting for a friend who has a network problem, hence he could not post it himself so I'm posting it for him until the problem is solved.
He has a PowerMac G5 and a PowerBook 17" both hooked on the same network. I will now quote the problem as he wrote it.
I kindly ask for your help to find a solution as the problem occured suddenly for no apparent reason on both computers.
a.) I have an ethernet-connection (LAN) through AUC.
b.) When I open the web-browser (or email-client), i.e., the Internet,
the website doesn't open and I get a message from "SpeedTouch"
saying that my "DSL-connection is down".
c.) In "System Preferences" and the the "Network" Symbol,
the settings are on "Built-in Ethernet" and "Automatic".
Previously the Mac used to search automatically for the necessary info
and then it would work.
d.) Now, it doesn't. I have to change "Using DHCP" to "Using DHCP with
Manual Address",
press "Apply", and then change back to "Using DHC", and press 'Apply"
again.
e.) Then the Network-Connection works, but only as long as the
computer is on.
f.) When I switch the computer off, and then start it again, I'm back to
zero. I have the problem again and have to go the same moves to fix
it.
By the way: the same problem occurs with my wife's Mac. It didn't
occur there before. Both computer are hooked up to an Ethernet-
switch.
Ok, so there it goes. I hope anyone has any clue. His OS is 10.4.6 on both computers.
Thank you for your help in advance...

My guess is that the switch was added to allow a single network interface to connect to multiple computers.
Make sure the network interface (sounds like DSL) or the router is set to enable NAT (Network Address Translation). May also be called "distribute IP addresses" or some such clever alternate name.
If the router is not set to support NAT it may see the MAC address of the switch and provide an IP address to it only. Or it provides one only to the first device to ask for one. By manually enabling an address, you are working around it.
