SOYO Dragon + NIC Problem

[ShadowFox]

Hey, i'm having trouble with the integrated NIC on my new Dragon +. It hardly works: sometimes it shows up on my network(in network neighborhood) but i cant access any of the shared drives, none of my other comps show up with it. I've tried all the different spped settings... (100tx full duplex to 10t half duplex) anyone else have this problem? What can i do, or should i just RMA it? (yes i have the newest bios and NIC drivers)

First isolate the problem. Are you sure it is hardware related or do you think its software related? What colors are the LEDs on theport?Have you tried pinging other systems on your network? What are your system specs? What OS are you running? Are you sure your network is setup properly?

RMAs should always be a last resort.
