I have no clue as to WHY, and simply unplugging the cat 5 and then putting it back in will let it go for another 3k packets.
IPX and TCP protocols are installed... Thing can see other computers on the network, until the 3k mark. I just cannot figure out why it's not working right. If I do connect it to my cable modem directly, it won't work period.
HELP!!!

well, 2 reasons:
1: it might not be his computer. He mentioned that it was only at his house for a week, and it might not be his to just mix and match components with.
2: I was thinking like a computer tech, and normally you don't just trade components with clients.

I had the problem of connection with my laptop using a hub with my cable company (I can't use a router. It screws up the IP addy) and I had to go through a lot to finally have them figure out the third IP wasn't added to the cable modem.
So when it cycled, it was only authorizing two computers, because it only had instructions to do so.
Router, I dunno. I had serious problems with my cable company when I used a router, after they switched to using DHCP.

I'm not using a router or a hub, I'm using a switch. About as simple as it can get, and cheap too.
But, I ran the internet connection wizard, set the sucker up, just like the box I'm currently using, and it just drops off like that all the time without any reason to do so.
Anyway, I got the new networking card, and I'll throw it in the box and set everything up in a few minutes here(after registering my second EQ account) and hope for the best. If it doesn't work out, I'll post in this thread again.
Thanks all for the ideas on what might be causeing the problems.
That's usually what I'd do right about now... And YES I would be allowed too, there's nothing at all on the computer right now other than the crap I have put on.something that'll just wipe the drive?
look for SEAGATE'S DISK WIZARD STARTER EDITION. It can do pretty much anything you need it to in terms of formatting and such, and it's a bootable floppy. Free download, just go find it.
