Hi... I have never had a problem after installing a Mac OS Update but have one now. Since installing Mac OS X 10.2.8 update this evening, I can no longer get online with my DSL Firewire modem. I get the message that the PPPoE server cannot be found.

I have deleted the Internet and Network preferences and rebooted, unplugged/replugged the firewire connection to my computer and tried various other things. Nothing works.

My computer is a PowerMac G4 dual processor 450 Mhz.

Any help would VERY MUCH be appreciated!
