Hello, We had a 3com NIC go bad and replaced it with and Intel card.
I'm noticing odd behavior. The kernel/NIC runs a self-test and says that it's up in 100 Full Duplex mode. [ This is good. ] I try to ping some sites to verify and I get 100% packet loss. I did ping to the broadcast address and machines on the LAN responded. [ This is good. ] Then I could ping www.cisco.com. [ This is very good. ] A day later, I can't get out to any machines on the LAN or on the internet. As a test, I went back and did a ping to the broadcast address. No other machines responded this time. I have the feeling that some network guy, put a block on the wall jack ... Thoughts? Regards, Marc
