I get problems like this on and off with my Lucent card. If I set the
Internet Setup to use DHCP, then I usually get errors regarding DHCP
configuring my Newton. If I set Internet Setup to use a Manual
Configuration, then I usually get errors that the DNS server could not
be found. With either of these settings, it will "just work" correctly
every so often, and then repeatedly for a few times or a few days
before causing problems again, but I haven't been able to figure out in
a systematic way what is causing it to work or not to work. In all
cases, connecting with a browser works more often than connecting with
SimpleMail. Why this is so, I do not know.
