VIST\NIC Issues
I'm wondering if anyone can help me. Dell is clueless (no huge surprise
there) amd Intel won't help me. At Vista startup, my NIC/Lan connection comes up in the tasktray with a caution icon over it. Yellow triangular sign with an exclamation point in it. When I diagnose and repair, I have to use the option to reset the device, power it on and off, to get it work. From there, my internet works great and I get good speed. But why do I need to this everytime? What is causing the problem? This is a fresh install of Vista Home Premium with no apps except windows installed apps. Here's the info on what I have done so far. NIC Card Intel 82566DC Gigabit Ethernet Controller Intel Chipset 965 My network is an always on broadband cable connection. 7 megs I have a linksys VOIP router in the middele. I have eliminated the router and connected straight from the modem. No change. I have made sure I have the most up to date drivers from dell and intel. Chipset and NIC. Of course Intel is newer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Nothing changes. Even manually deleted the drivers and nothing. I have booted in safe mode with networking and the same problem exists. I believe this should rule out other driver/application conflicts. I have no exclamation points in the device manager. Any help or ideas is much appreciated.

VIST\NIC Issues
Assuming you use DHCP, try to setup static IP. does that fix the problem?

is flow control on or off?
what happens when you set the NIC to 100 mbs as opposed to auto sense? On Mon, 21 May 2007 17:19:00 -0700, Anthony wrote: I'm wondering if anyone can help me.

VIST\NIC Issues
flow control is set to RX & TX Enabled. The only place I can see to set the
speed is under Link speed and duplex. is that what you are refferring to? The link speed and duplex is set to autonegotiation. Static IP didn't make a difference. Any other ideas?

yes - link speed. I'd be curious to see what happens if you set to
100mb instead of auto negotiate. On Tue, 22 May 2007 10:56:02 -0700, Anthony wrote: flow control is set to RX & TX Enabled.

VIST\NIC Issues
I tried setting the link speed to 100 mps anyway to see if it made a
difference and it didn't. Noticed something interesting though when doing an ipconfig. Am I putting myself at a security risk if I post the ipconfig data for you to look at?

the IP you are posting from is actually in the header of this
message along with your host name. That's more info than anyone can get from what you'd get with ipconfig /all from behind a router. you mention drivers from Dell and Intel - are these specific Vista drivers? in device manager - disable any power management on this network adapter and don't let it turn off power on the NIC. see if that makes a difference.
