Make sure you are using the drivers that are shipped on the resource CD for the onboard network controller. 2. Make sure the driver is loaded and the protocols are bound. 3. Make sure the network cable is securely attached to the connector at the server back panel. If the cable is attached but the problem persists, try a different cable. 4. Make sure the hub port is configured for the same duplex mode as the network controller. 5. Check with your LAN administrator about the correct networking software that needs to be installed. 6. If you are directly connecting two servers (no hub), you will need a crossover cable (refer to your hub documentation for more information on crossover cables). 7. Check the network controller LEDs that are visible through an opening on the server's back panel. 78 Chapter 6
