Re: c451 win prints OK mac only text

I have experienced where Cisco equipment, especially their network switches exhibit an issue called "link flapping" where if a device can't connect to the network properly, the Cisco device basically shuts down the associated network port!....the fix has been to put a simple and cheap 5 port ethernet switch between the offending mfp or computer and the Cisco network switch!

Don't ask me why or how, but it just works!

Just to add ..

I did try 100Mbs and half-duplex as well..

I think there is something iffy about the NIC on the previous machine... will come back on this when tested in the workshop.

Cheers

Machine works in workshop on Mac fine. Direct on LAN and also over wi-fi.

Thanks for your contributions.

PS: Really hard to digest such schoolboy error.
