If I manually configure it everything works ok. The fix that was given before was to update the firmware. I have searched everywhere for the firware with no luck. I may have missed it, but all I found were windows updates. I even got my hands on a windows laptop and tried to update it, which looked succesful, but when I put the card back into the laptop it showed the old firware number. I called avaya and they said there is no way (even if I had windows) to update the firmware... How exactly did others on this list get thier card working? Thanks! k.
