#define quoting(Arnold J. Rimmer) // ifconfig -a is as i indicated previously (after correcting typo): // ed0: flags=8843 <UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 // inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 // ether 00:00:c0:0f:62:9b // // no such command in windoze winipcfg, at least on winblows 95. // ok as to hardware. loopback test with T-connector and 2 terminators // failed on windoze box. auto media detect is on. LED's are present and // flash. cables are not leftovers from cable guy. they are new. as are // terminators and T-connectors., but i only have the 2 of each, so i // cannot test if they are good. Can't you find a ohmmeter around ? It's still the most useful tool and cost/benefit ratio for coax cable analysis. :) // diagnostics seemed ok on windize box, except failed loopback test. BUT // on bsd box i had a failed ram test/memory conflict. the setup program // allows 2 addressing modes: ram base and i/o mapped. i set to ram base // and used 0d800 and set kernal to this as well. the setup only allows a // range of c000 - ee00 step 200. kernal apparently has much larger range // 000000 - ffffff (?). is there provision for i/o mapping? auto media // detection is on; PnP is off. testing would not progress to loopback: // stopped when ram test failed. I strongly suspect of hardware problems. If you can fix this, try also the remote repeater test. Hope your card's diagnostic program has this test.
