Good idea. I'll check the MAC list. Its an onboard NIC so I couldn't swap it but it works with everything else. I think I'll turn that one off and stick a new PCI NIC in and see if that solves the problem.

I'd check that there weren't any entries in the MAC address list, just in case the on/off switch wasn't working :-) Have you got another pc you can put that network card in to prove that's not the problem?

I did check to make sure the router didn't have MAC Address filtering turned on. I just trusted that if it wasn't turned on it wasn't doing it, is there any way to check other than that? Does it sound like I'm getting paranoid? ;o) -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Tydda Jon - Slough Sent: Friday, March 20, 2009 9:56 AM To: Discussion of Hardware and Software issues Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] Puzzling network issue Have you checked that the router isn't doing something clever with MAC addresses, and blocking it? _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com This communication and its attachments, if any, may contain confidential and privileged information the use of which by other persons or entities than the intended recipient is prohibited.
