Hello,

I have a NetGear FR114P router, which works well with my two desktop PC and
a printer.
However, when I connect my Dell Inspiron 8100 laptop to it, the connection
is not successful.
The W2K simply displays the status "Local Area Connection Network cable
unplugged" on the bottom-right system tray.
For test purpose, I have directly connectted the laptop to the broadband
modem, and there is no problem. This means the OS on the laptop and the
cable connecting to the router works well. Also, I have upgrade the firmware
for FR114P, and this is not helpful.
Has anyone got any idea about this strange behaviour of FR114P?

regards,
George
