Ok all. This one has me stumped. I have a computer and a print server that I
moved from the first floor to the second floor and now will not see the
network no matter what I do. I have tested the cable runs and they test out
ok. I have used the cables I was using on the first floor and no
connectivity. I have used new cables on the second floor. no connectivity. I
have taken my laptop and plugged into both ports using the cables I have
there to use on the PC and print server and recieved a good connection and IP
on the laptop. I have changed the NIC cards on the PC and even reinstalled
both drivers for each NIC. So far I cannot get the PC nor the Print server to
connect to the network no matter what I do. Any ideas?

All ideas are welcome. Thank you in advance.

Scott
