Network Adapter / Ethernet Problems

The Ethernet adapter does not work -
„

Go to [Start > Settings > Control Panel > System >

Hardware > Device Manager]. Double-click on Network

Adapters and check if Generic Marvell Yukon Chipset based

Gigabit Ethernet Controller appears as one of the adapters. If it

does not exist, Windows has not detected the Generic Marvell

Yukon Chipset based Gigabit Ethernet Controller or the device

driver has not been installed properly. If there is a yellow mark

or red-cross on the network adapter, it may be a device or

resource conflict. Replace or update the device driver from the

factory CD-ROM disk or consult Windows manual on how to

solve the resource conflict problem.

„

Make sure the physical connections on both ends of the

cable are good.

„

The hub or concentrator may not be working properly.

Check to see if other workstations connected to the same hub

or concentrator is working.

The Ethernet adapter does not appear to operate in the
1000Mbps transmission mode -
„

Make sure the hub you are using supports 1000Mbps

operation.

„

Make sure that your RJ-45 cable meets the

1000Base-TX requirements.

„

Make sure the Ethernet cable is connected to the hub

 

socket that supports 1000Base-TX mode. The hub may have

both 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T sockets.
