I have a Versa Note with an inbuild ethernet card and if I am not connected to the network when I start, I get a whole list of stuff like transmit timed out, switching to 10baseTx-FD media, etc... in the startup messages. The ethernet is not modular and was setup to automatically detect which media to use. I am assuming that these are just it going through the motions of finding that NOTHING is there - (True/False) ?
ALSO, if I remove the ethernet cable and put it back later I lose my connection entirely. /etc/init.d/network restart doesn't work and I am not quite sure about ifconfig, route, etc. Thanks - be kind ...
