At the risk of adding more problems and no solutions...I also have this problem.
Dell Dimension destop with built-in Intel Pro/100 VE NIC connecting to a D-Link DSL
Hub/Router. I am getting the "Network Cable Unplugged" message despite changing speed
settings and everything else suggested here. I know the cable and hub are OK because
I can use the same cable in my notebook and it's fine.
This is driving me insane. Short of a physical problem with the onboard NIC, I don't
know what could be wrong.......HELP!!!!!! (please)
