Network Problems Some common causes and solutions for network problems are listed in the following table. These guidelines do not discuss the process of debugging network cabling. Table G-11 Network Problems Problem Cause Solution System does not detect a network controller. Possible I/O address conflict Factory default is 300h to 30Fh for Ethernet. Either remove and with another expansion board. reconfigure the conflicting expansion board, or reconfigure the network controller. If the address is changed, ensure that the drive parameters match the new I/O address for the network controller. System Setup utility reports unprogrammed EPROM. 1. Possible I/O address conflict 1.
