Hello All, need help! just purchased my very first mac, imac g5. But having problems getting my NTL broadband to work. Connected to the cable modem via a cat5 cable.

As i am new to the mac im using the network setup assistant, my settings are set to DHCP and Built in ethernet.

On the wizard it asks if i want " DHCP Client" but i need a client id? or if i connect via PPPoE, and needs account name, password etc. no success either way!

Anybody out the kind enough to talk me through this?

Many Thanks in advance
Mick

PS I would have used the CD provided by NTL had it worked!
