If it was a switch problem, it should not be specific to some |
| 9 |
addresses. Have you contacted your ISP? You may have to get past the |
| 10 |
first level of support to get someone that knows something, but they |
| 11 |
may be able to do some ping/traceroute tests from their end to see |
| 12 |
what the problem with the IP address is. |

The other option is to get a second PCMCIA card, and swap them when |
| 15 |
you have trouble. Since the second card would have a different MAC, |
| 16 |
it would get a different address. |
