Help needed with pcmcia network card

[beltrixx]

Hi,

I have a problem with my PCMCIA network card, hope that someone has any ideas...

I recently bought a Fiberline FL-4680 card on eBay. The card is correctly configured under Genesis and seems to initialize correctly without errors (the connection is On and the timer starts counting...).

The card-info tool is able to gather info from the card and recognizes it as a Network card, but I cannot browse the web!

If I ping a known external IP I get 100% packet loss. Another curious thing is that NONE of the LEDS at the card dongle turns ON (there are two leds : ACT and 10M) and I think the leds should turn on as soon as I plug the network cable into the dongle. Isn't it?

How can I determine the component which is failing?? Maybe the card dongle??

Thanks in advance,

Beltrixx.

Yes I specified the IP manually to match my network config and I also have specified the MAC address and the IP of the network card at the router config screen (I have disabled DHCP).

I also think that the leds should turn on as soon as I plug in the network cable into the dongle.

is it possible that the problem is coming from the dongle?
