I have a brand new install of a WHS 2011 Vail. I am running a Marvell 8011 Gigabit Network Card w/ ASUS P5NSLI motherboard. When I first booted up I cannot get an IP at all, I check ipconfig and its just the local assigned IP of the 169 and not
what my router is giving. I decided to try using a Static IP which that did not work either. I tried to ping localhost to verify it was installed correctly and I was getting a response just fine on localhost. I also installed the latest signed
Drives from Marvell's website for the card as well.
I put a Netgear card in the server as well which is a RealTek and that would connect for a few minutes then it disappeared from Device Manager All together. I thought maybe something was defective with the Network Hardware, I formatted it and installed
Windows 7 64-BIT and it connected fine with no issues, I also was able to load WHS 2008 the older version and it also was connecting to the network with no issues.
I Need some help here, am I missing some kind of step? I have tried all different drives, I checked my Date/Time on my computer, I checked my BIOS, I tried setting to PST time, I tried a few other fixes as well. Maybe there is some setting causing
it? I also have power cycled my equipment with the WHS loaded.
