Well that's interesting. A tried to get an ADSL modem to work through the NIC to my ISP but couldn't get it to work. I couldn't ping the gateway address for the ADSL modem.
I used all the settings from my WinXP box to set up the ADSL modem but couldn't get it to work. Can you do screen dumps for me so that I can check to make sure all the settings are in the right boxes? If you don't mind I'll try again tonight and if I can not get it to work, I'll send you the screen dumps to look at. -----Original Message----- From: Andy George [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 18 November 2002 10:07 a.m. To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: NIC card Mine does this too... says NOT ACTIVATED, but I've logged into the server, got a DHCP address, can see the shares, access to the internet, and everything, so sod it...
