I put together a brand new PC w/ the above Asus motherboard that c/w 2 x NIC port. The software is Win 7 Pro, 32 bit, using as a workstation
The NIC was connected at my place about 5 times, for anti-virus update, windows update etc. and 5 out of 5, the moment I connect the RJ-45, the machine see the internet connection.
Bring this machine to the client's location, when the RJ-45 was plug in, there is no internet. I then plug that RJ-45 to the 2nd NIC port, again, no internet.
I then plug that same cable to my testbed sub-notebook, instantly I got internet. So it would looks like it's the machine. But that motherboard is very high end, and it works perfectly fine at my place.
Then I re-boot that PC, and as soon as I reboot, I got internet.
The next day, same time happens, when the RJ-45 cable is plug in, the machine is not seeing the internet, just a red X at the bottom right corner. But when I reboot, the PC sees the internet.
Almost as if there is some sort of time out.
I have seen something very similar to this a few yr. ago, and that's a voltage fluctuation at the router, once a UPS is connected to the router, I solved that problem
Does any1 else has any theory besides the above?
