[G4] I can't get DSL in my G4...

Did you have to give a Mac Address for you computer when signing up  
for DSL.. Some ISP require a Mac Address to ID you Computer. If PC was 
the computer that you signed up with then you may have to get a router 
and clone the Mac Address of the PC in it.. Then any computer connected 
to router will connect.. Other wise your TCP/IP settings may not be 
correct and in some cases have to use a fixed IP address.
