Default Dual Lan but one ethernet cable problem

Hey!

I have dual lan on my motherboard and sometime when vista boots up the
netwrok wont connect ot the internet, vista says plug the cable into the
other port, so i do, and it works. but i have to do this evrey other time i
boot up and its getting annoying. is there any way i can fix this problem?

The LAN should work if an ethernet cable is plugged into it and not have to
switch it around a lot

Thanks!

If you disable one of ports, does that fix the problem?
