You mind if I call you E.T. ? :lol:
Seriously though, I had a question about the onboard LAN on my 8RDA+. I had to hook my home network back up a few days ago, and found my LAN didn't work anymore. it was installed perfectly as far as windows was concerned, but I just couldn't browse the network. I couldn't be bothered to fiddle with it for too long so I just disabled the onboard LAN and shoved in a spare PCI LAN card I had, and forgot about it.
I was reminded yesterday evening when I accidentally saw something on a web page about the on-board LAN not working after a BIOS flash. I <i>have</i> flashed the BIOS (although not that recently) so I thought it might be the same problem (although it didn't detail exactly how the problem manifested itself on the page).
It gave a solution that had something to do with running ipconfig /all, noting down some numbers and then filling them in under the 'MAC LAN' adress in BIOS.
I was wondering if you could confirm any of this? I'll probably try it tonight anyhow, but I was curious if you knew anything about this, or even if there's some other solution?
