I know somewhere in Open Transport is a setting to force it to keep

always shutting down their TCP/IP Ethernet connections and wouldn't
wake up when other computers needed access to their shared resources.
The checkbox, in TCP/IP Options, is labeled "Load only when needed",
so you have to *uncheck* it.
Anyway, find that, set that on and your TCP/IP connection will fire
up during boot and *stay on* without first having to run something
on the Mac that accesses the network.

That sounds unlikely. Perhaps you're just running System 7.6 or later.
pinging from a remote computer on the same LAN gets no response
(times out) until
iCAb is brought up once and then the ping works (responds) until the
next boot/reboot..
I suspect macTCP should work the same way..
