I can't get my nic to install properly... It seems to install... i can ping it at 127.0.0.1 from the command prompt... when i run ipconfig the nic ip defaults to some unknown address... the netmask is stuck at 255.255.0.0... it doesn't seem to be seeing ths dhcp or dns servers... i have tried removing and reinstalling the hardware, drivers, with no change... The NIC is defaulting to a Link Local IP address in the range 169.254.0.0/255.255.0.0 (described in RFC 3330). This is by design when it can't find a DHCP server to assign an IP address. How are you configuring the properties? It may be defective, of course; but that depends upon whether you are installing standard drives which come with Windows, or the drivers that come on the disc that came with the card. -- Norman ~Win dain a lotica, En vai tu ri, Si lo ta ~Fin dein a loluca, En dragu a sei lain ~Vi fa-ru les shutai am, En riga-lint |
