Verify cable connections

• Make sure that the computer(s) you are troubleshooting are connected correctly.

• The network card must be connected to the network with Category 5 UTP (unshielded

twisted pair) cables.

• Examine the network cables and make sure that they have not been damaged.

• Make sure that no electromagnetic interference, like unshielded speakers or

appliances on the same circuit, is affecting your network.

• If you are using a hub, router, or switch, make sure that your network cables are not

plugged into a dedicated Uplink port. The Uplink port is only used when connecting

your hub to another hub or switch.

Verify each computer’s indentification

• Make sure that each computer on your network has a unique computer name.

• Make sure that all the workgroup name is identical for all computers on your network.

If one computer has a different workgroup name than the others, that computer will

not appear in the same workgroup view.

Verify indicators

Your network card has indicators or lights that can give you information about your network

traffic and help you determine problems when troubleshooting. The card has two indicators

labeled Link/Act and Full Duplex. A steady green Link/Act light indicates a good connection

with the switch. A flashing green Link/Act light indicates that the network card is sending or

receiving data.

When your computer is turned on and the network card is inserted into an open slot

connector, a green light on the direct port LED indicator indicates that the card is linked to

the network.If the LED remains dark without any apparent cause, check the network card

installation.

Pinging your network card

PING is the acronym for Packet Internet Groper (PING), a utility to determine if a specific IP

address is accessible. It works by sending a packet to the specified address and waiting for a

reply. Ping is primarily used to troubleshoot Internet connections. By sending out a ping, you

are verifying that a specific computer is available. Because all computers on the network

must have a unique IP address, getting a reply means that a computer is on the network and

that it can communicate.

If the computers can communicate, the hardware and cabling are probably okay. If you

cannot ping another computer, there is probably a problem with the hardware. Check the

cabling and adapter installation. If you are unable to network, even when you receive a reply

to your ping, there is probably a software configuration problem. Verify that all the settings

are correct.

To ping the network card:

Click Start, then click Run. The Run dialog box opens.

Type cmd in the Open box, then click OK. The command window opens.

Type ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address you want to

ping). In this case, computer B with the IP address=192.168.0.1 is being pinged from

computer A.

Press Enter to begin pinging. If the connection is good, you receive four "Reply from"

messages.

Type exit at the prompt to return to Windows.
