 |
|
My P5B-VM motherboard had onboard gigabit LAN port (http://
dlsvr01.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socket775/P5B-VM/e2833_p5b-vm.pdf 1.10.1
Rear Panel Connectors). I connected it to my ISP DSL modem and ran
installation program which was just a simple program (see
http://cs.netvigator.com/eng/ Homepage > Technical Support > Broadband
Service > Installation Guide). I checked that signal LED on DSL modem
OK but I couldn't get IP from my ISP. I checked Internet connection
settings from control panel which I found of range 169.x.x.x. I tried
right clicked on LAN conenction icon and select recover option to
force request IP from ISP but failed. Besides, the SPEED LED of LAN
port lit on in ORANGE while ACT/LINK LED was OFF.
To check if problem source was my LAN port. I manually assigned an IP
192.168.1.1 to the port. XP reported assignment & I could check back
this IP by typing ipconfig/all from DOS prompt. When I tried pinging
192.168.1.1 I got error response "Request timed out". Yet, when I
pinged 127.0.0.1, the response was normal.
I didn't know what's wrong with my LAN port. Could anyone suggest a
solution please ? |

You need to load driver for the onboard LAN before you can use.

As 007 said, install the LAN port drivers on the MB CD.

Actually, I had installed LAN driver before (but at that I'm busy
troubleshooting my onboard sound problem and not yet addressed LAN
connection issue). I repeated uninstall LAN driver->select device
manager LAN interface card to delete entries->reboot PC->reinstall LAN
driver(turn DSL modem ON & OFF several times. Ultimately ping to
manual assigned IP succeed. Connection to internet also succeed as I
executed ISP provided login program.
But now I have two outstanding issues:
1) Control Panel -> Network Connection -> LAN connection status should
be "Connected" but it's always "Unrecoverable" as before network
connection issue resolved.
2) Device Manager->LAN card entry is Realtek...Ethernet NIC #5 instead
of Realtek...Ethernet NIC
Any suggestions to change status & name back to normal ? |

It does that every time I have a problem as well. I'm up to NIC #5 and
Network connection #6.
I don't know how, or if, you can change the numbers, as it didn't bother
me, so I just left them that way.
Perhaps someone else will know. Blad you were able to get the network
working, though. I've been having troubles myself, and it ended up
being a bad modem. |
