Thanks for the idea Claudio. The cross over cable does not work either. Whatis amazing for me is that it can be connected to a laptop but not to a desktop computer? It connects to a Windows XP laptop and I can connect to the internet but it will not show link up if I connect it to a Windows XP desktop or a linux desktop or my OpenBSD firewall. I tried giving the same lladdr of the Windows XP laptiop through which i connected to the openBSD NIC still it shows no carrier :-( The ISP told us that it should be given to some device like fortigate But What amazes me is how I am able to get it working on a laptop :-( thanks --Siju
