Hi Guys...
Sorry I didn't provide more details...
No error is given.. We are trying to use the ports for a UPS (APC Smart UPS)
and an external modem.. (US Robotics 56k) no response from the server when
these pieces of equipment are connected... We've tried configuring the ports
to known hardware addresses to no avail...
I have checked the driver version and created a connection... No joy
either...
Any further help would be marvelous...
