The circling stars usually means a bad hard drive, but disconnecting from the network would certainly do nothing to improve your hard drive. Are you sure that it functions fine as a stand alone copier with the network line disconnected? Does it print OK when it does power up?
You may have two distinct problems:
1) Bad hard drive for circling stars/won't boot up.
2) Bad AR-PB2A Print card (and good luck finding one).

I'm still leaning towards the hard drive. I have had a few of these go intermittent, and a reformat will get you a few days (but only a few days).
