>>>The windows autodetect the card but in the network neighborhood we can't see the other computer only ours. We have only connected utp cable without hub (it's possible?!). The protocols are ipx/spx and tcp/ip. We can't ping in one computer or another the opposite computer. Any ideas for make this work?<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< What is you selected primary network logon software (Client for microsoft?)... uses NetB... others can function with what you've used.. did you insatll the drivers for each card (as you mentioned, it did autoconnect??) Are the names of the workgroups the same in network neighbor (under identification)..the computers can be diff. but all else has to be the same... 3Com's diagnostics should be able to show a connection... also, double check you card installations... move one (only work on the one pC until exhausting the changes) to another slot on the motherboard. Good luck. -- Rich "Doc" Colley doc@ecom.net
