So I got my TigerDirect (were these refurbs or something?)
unit.
Can't get it to respond to the remote at all.
When plugged into my switch its up on 10mb and the server
manager under win98 can see it, but I can't figure out
how the heck to get it to set a real IP. Tried configuring the
ip setup and setting up DHCP on my switch. Neither works.
My switch (cisco 3500XL) can see it and does assign it
to 10mb. I can name it in the manager. The link light
does come on, on the receiver.
The only clue I have is that the activity light is on solid.
I have no machines with extra pci slots to test the hpna.
Tried forcing 10mb on the switch, differing cables and
ports, etc. The manager never goes blue even though it
can find the unit. The unit keeps assigning itself
completely bogus ips in the 169.254.x.x range.
None of the front panel buttons do anything except the power
button.
Hints?
