Thanks for writing Barb,
I have updated to the latest firmware on the router. I tried everything you
suggested. I think my Network Adapter is a Marvel Yukon built on my Asus
P5NSLI board with latest driver. Just so strange that it work through the
switch and not directly plugged into the router. I may have to try another
router. Which one is your favorite?
Thanks,
Marc
