I have an SIS 900-Based PCI Ethernet Adapter on a Windows XP Home Edition operating system Pentium 4, 2.40 GHz.

Net connection: Cable

The proplem: I keep getting disconected from the Network. I then go disable & enable and then it reconects. Last about 10-60+ but then I lose connection.
I know it's not the cable company as I have anothe computer but it has a DLink card in it and I have no problems with that one.
Should I just scrap the SIS card out of the other computer (we will name "Com#2) and just go get anothe DLink card to save some headaches or is there another salution?

Whoo! I'm tired. This is just giing me headaches.

Thanks to anyone that can help on this subject. If no one knows, still thanks for trying.

I use a SIS card and have no problems with it,... now! I had a problem but
it wasn't the card, it was a matter of the signal I was getting to the card
through the cable and connections to the modem. In my situation, I had to
install a signal amplifier in front of my cable modem to correct the same
problem you seem to be having.

First check all the wiring and connections to the PC and modem, then if all
looks good, if you can, move the PC you are having the problem with to the
location of the other PC and use the same wiring, etc. to hook to the
internet and see if it works. If it does, you can get a signal amplifier
from Radio Shack for about $40 US. If it doesn't, you can get a new net card
from your local PC store for about $15.

LOL, JAX
