Not sure if it is remotely related to your problem, but I've noticed something |
| 9 |
similar happening when I was using a Netgear DG834 router and happened to |
| 10 |
start up a box with a gigabit ethernet card (everything else was 10T-100). |
| 11 |
While the gigabit card was negotiating speeds with the router everything else |
| 12 |
was unable to use the network. That could last for up to a minute or so. |
| 13 |
When I changed router the problem went away. |
