Thanks very much for your quick response

I tried this and got what is now a familiar message for me:

NET3502: OS/2 error 53 has occurred.
SYS0053: The network path was not found.

I tried this too.  The local pings worked, but not those accross the
network.
I should add that both cards are Combo cards and I know they work via the
UTP plug as I have connected to the internet using both via a cable modem.
What I cannot be sure is whether the cards are now using the Coax port = is
a warm boot enough to get the 3c905 card to use its other exit plug?
