Hi folks.
I hope someone can help with this mystery.
I have installed a small ethernet network at home. One of the
sockets is in my son's bedroom. He has now moved his computer to his
bedroom, but when he plugs the network cable in, Windows says that a
network cable is unplugged.
I get the same message on my wife's Wintel laptop when I plug it in
to the same socket.
However, when I plug my powerbook in, the network works fine.
I have replaced the cable in the wall, the wall socket and the
network lead, and the symptoms remain.
Does anyone understand why a mac should register on the network while
2 PCs don't?
Cheers
Rob
