That must be a negotiation issue. Try to force duplex and 10/100 settings. How is your network setup?

Once the router is up and running, if I try and ping it from a machine on the interior network, it won't respond. However, if I try and ping from the router to the machine on the network, the first four packet fail and then it starts to work. After that, the ping from the machine to the router works as well. Does anyone have any idea what causes the interface to fail until it has been 'primed' like this?
