unable to boot up Apple's Hardware Test

[Tech198]

Hi all...

I can't boot Apple's Hardware Test on this Mac Mini.

Going over Wi-fi, i get an error with globe on screen...

Over Eithernet, i just get the globe, with option to connect to wifi, via drop down..

Is this hardware related ? since the eithernet port and wifi work just fine within the OS.

All other mac's connected to the same wi-fi router, using same password works just fine after powered on and pressing "D" at boot.

Some earlier machines need the disc. Since you didn't give the specifics of your Mini, figure out where yours fits in:

Also make sure you don't have an EFI password set.

What OS did it come with originally? The link I posted states that some machines need the discs.
