Telling me what kind of NIC it is isn't going to help, 82573's are working the world over :) What exactly is your laptop, what model, is the NIC a LOM (on the motherboard) or some addin. Some random thoughts: There should be NO need to specify full duplex, if you have to do that then you have some problem with your switch. Are you loading the driver as a module, or is it static? So, if you do this: get a cable and eliminate any switch, just a back to back connection between two machines, then if you load the driver and ifconfig address up... what happens??
