Unidentified Network

Thu, 23 Feb 2012 19:48:21 +0000

I have a weard behavior in a small LAN where some PCs “wired” cannot get connected to the network nor get an IP address from DHCP. to be specific, the network has: 1. Win 7 clients, NICs have auto negotiate on, Jumbo packets off 2. Dlink unmanaged switch 10/100, 24-ports, all are auto negotiate, auto sense 3. ISP router with DHCP service that’s working fine Problem: some PCs with NVIDIA nForce NICs gets the “Unidentified network” when plugged to the Dlink switch. trying to remove the NIC and restart does not fix the problem, tring ipconfig/release doesn’t fix it as well, and trying to assign them a static IP also doen’t fix it. Had to use another Netgear unmanaged switch “also all its 16 ports are auto negotiate and auto sense”, attached it to the router and connected it to the Dlink “downlink” so now Dlink is connected to the ISP router through the Netgear switch. so now the network now as follows: some PCs connect to Dlink which has traffic to the router through the Netgear switch and other PCs are directly connected to the Netgear which goes to the internet through the router. To this point, all are happy but my problem is why can’t I simply move all PCs to my Dlink 24 ports and remove the netgear “16-ports” from the network, use it in somewhere else.

Netgear routing versus Cisco routing

Djsizzle — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 10:11:17 +0000

Currently an organization i work for is looking at changing their network topology. They have a netgear fvx538 router as their core routing equipment and it also functions as the firewall. we are proposing using the cisco 3945 as the core router an asa 5510 as the firewall, the distribution switch would be the 3750 switch and the access layer switches can still be the netgear gsm 7328s since the switches are already on the network and to reduce the cost of buying all new 2960 switchws for the 7 floors. Are there any flaws to this topology or improvements or unforeseeable issues?

Netgear 7328s interoperability with the Cisco 3750 switch

Djsizzle — Tue, 11 Oct 2011 09:22:16 +0000

1.Is this netgear switch interoperable with the cisco 3750 switch. the cisco 3750 acts as the distributin switch in this organisation while the netgear switch is the access layer switch. would there be any issues in configuring the vlans and other configs that might e necessary?

2. which is better as the core, the cisco 3945 router or the netgear fvx358?

one PC on my Wireless LAN cannot connect to internet

Bellissimmo — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 19:42:03 +0000

I have a wireless LAN using ADSL. I have connected five pc’s with no problem but there is one (Vista) laptop that connects fine to the router but the ‘network map’ in the ‘network and sharing center’ shows a red cross between the router and the internet. Windows troubleshooter doesn’t fix the problem. Any help in where (and how) to look for a solution would be much appreciated.
