steveyjr Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 A problem has risen involving my onboard lan. When ever I boot up there is a little icon that displays my network cable is unplugged. When in fact it is plugged in and operational. After about 15-20 seconds (varying with each boot) this goes away and I have my lan working again. I also previously this lan was not working and since ive read this forum I have been able to get it working again via inputing the mac address manually into the bios. I have had to do this twice now and this is getting very frustrating because all my friends raved over how good dfi boards are. Im starting to doubt that from this board alone. But then again it could just be MY board thats doing it. Another thing is that everyonce in a while I just flat out lose my connection. I am on a router and two other pcs are hooked up to it but they will both still have an active connection.:confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkyftw Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 Now I can't help you but I used to have this same problem with my DFI board. Well the disconnecting part. It seemed to do it at random times. At times it would disconnect every 5 minutes, taking atleast a minute to reconnect. All other computers were fine though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Proton Posted September 3, 2006 Posted September 3, 2006 If you have the 5.11 drivers loaded, uninstall at least the LAN driver and install the LAN driver from 5.10. I've read quite a few posts having probems with 5.11 LAN driver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveyjr Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 Yes, that is one of the things I did to get my lan working in the first and thats what im running now is the 5.10 drivers. I did a few adjustments earlier so we'll see how it turns out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chapas Posted September 4, 2006 Posted September 4, 2006 5.11 drivers have problems. Use 5.10 for better stability. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
