re: Network Cable Unplugged Thursday, October 28, 2004 at 11:35 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Donna Jay (2 messages posted) What do you mean by power cycle the switch? I'm having the same problem everyone else is and suspect that it is an xp problem. Both of my computers are xp, but the one with the network cable unplugged is hooked up through the phone line (hpna) through a 2wire pc portal, not a nic card. There is no way to set the 10/100/1000 mb with this adapter. I think it must automatically be set since it is a 10 mb adapter. It's been working fine since I bought it in May and just in the past week and a half I've been getting the network cable unplugged bubble intermittently then last night it is permanent and that computer can not hook up to the internet at all now. I've tried several fixes mentioned here and still nothing. Any other ideas? On Tuesday, October 12, 2004 at 5:20 pm, Brendan Simon wrote: >I have a oldish Dell machine with a 3COM 3C905C-TXM card.
