I have a CNet Pro200 100/10Mbps ethernet card. I followed the advice on Robin Walker's site for USB to ethernet, but I can't get it to connect.

Rebooted the ntl:home 100 with the ethernet cable in place insted of USB and when stabilised, turned the PC back on.

I expected it to get a new MAC address automatically and winipcfg tells me it has one, but nothing's going up or down the pipe. I tried releasing and renewing the DHCP lease, but I don't get a "lease expires" date.

I have Sygate Pro and tried setting to "Allow all" in case that was a problem. All the other TPC/IP settings are the same as with USB.

Where am I going wrong?
