I have a Panther PM G4 (one listed below) that seems to cause a lack of network activity when my wife logs in when I'm already logged in. It doesn't happen every time, but logging out of my account does fix the network problem. I searched around, but couldn't find any similar posts, so does anyone have experience with this or have a guess what it is? Thanks!

Are you using anything like a VPN client? That may not be interacting well with FUS.

Nothing like that at all. Any other thoughts?

What kind of Internet connection are you on? Dial-up? DSL? If it's dial-up, you should check the settings in Internet Connect - by default the connection drops between different log-ins. If it's DSL it could be a PPPoE issue, although I haven't heard of such a problem on OS X.
