Working from home

Got a few www.popex.com / Mac issues it seems, the game sets a cookie so it knows you're logged in, but it seems to be losing this for users on a Mac... I don't have a Mac I can use at work, so doing this work from home. I love working from home, saves me the hours drag into work and then the hours drag home again, and I get my drinks for free, and I can use my lunch break to do something useful, like tidy up and eat a hot dinner.

Did a big old upgrade of popex yesterday, newer versions of operating system things so I can hopefully speed it right up.

Not able to reproduce the issue of being logged out on this iMac (OS9.2) but I am noticing that my PC doesn't like keeping connected to the internet while I'm using the Mac... I thought the router was supposed to sort all that out?

You sure you've got your iMac set up to get a dynamic IP address from the router's DHCP server? Sounds like you might be getting a clash of IPs on your network? Difficult to tell without seeing the iMac and PC. Maybe when I'm down in April I'll have a look if it's still a problem?

That could be what's up on the flatmate's laptop, I will check that...

with an iMac.
just gave it a fixed IP in the end.

Airport is OK, but other Mac wireless stuff seems to behave a bit randomly.

I think my old iMac is behaving OK

It's just since the flatmate got this laptop, not an iMac actually it's a G4... Oh yes I will report back when I can be bothered to figure it out! Good to hear from you man...
