DELL XPS M1710 - broadcom NetXtreme 57XX
 
hey guys,

I have a Dell XPS M1710. I've succusfully installed osx 10.5.8 but I can't get my LAN to work...

I've installed a driver I found on the internet, It recognizes the Ethernet adapter, but gives itself a random IP, so no internet connection...

If I set my ip manually, he can't connect... (But i'm not sure if I'm doing it right)

Can someone help me?

greetz & thanx!

problem fixed, it works with the broadcom netxtreme 5701 driver

I'm getting the 1710 sometime this week and was wandering what you used to install. I have several distro's and experience in installing and configuring and don't mind the terminal.

Think you could help me out??

Also.. I have a Broadcom 4311 that I know is compatible with OSX but don't know if the computer will recognize it..You think it would??
