Gigabit LAN has problems
However, it seems that communications are choking on the gigabit LAN. He can copy all the data he wants on the megabit LAN, but if he tries to do the same on the gigabit LAN, it takes forever, then chokes part way through.
I have replaced the NIC and also confirmed that his wiring is good.
The NIC is a D-Link DGE 550T Gigabit NIC. The PC is a Dell Precision WorkStation 420 MT. He is running Windows 2000 sp3, on a Windows 2000 network.
Is there some setting in CMOS, the mother board, or in Windows, which perhaps is set wrong?
All other similar users are using IBM Intellistations with the same NIC and Windows setup. None of them have this problem.
Any suggestions?
