Nvidia firewall

[MaRtIe]

hey guys, ive been playing around with the onboard gigbit LAN ports on my MSI k8n neo2 plat 939 mobo.

i cant seem to get my one port to work, at all on both my boards... (nvidia firewall+nvidia network controller.

do you guys know how i acctivate my nvidia firewall? ive done it once before but i cant remember how i managed to get the Nv firewall to work

the only options i see in the bios that might be it is (nvidia LAN) set to (Auto)

anyone got any advice?? i need both onboard ports working so i can link 2 comps via crossover wire...


thanks and have a good day.

One of the Ports is controlled by Nvidia and the other Marvel

yeah i managed to force it to install the nvidia network manager... only the Nvidia network controller port wont assign an ip adress :mad:

what do you connect to the nv net controller port? some other PC? or what? unless the other end has a DHCP server set-up yuo will always get that "limited connectivity" on XP SP2 and on Sp1 you will just get a personal space IP 169.254.x.x with 255.255.0.0 net submask
