sounds like an IP conflict. Unplug the network and ping again. See if you get a response.

Thanks Marv

I had tried my laptop direct with cross-over to see if it was indeed their network but I could not connect then that's when I decided to do the upgrade...and confirmed the IP/Subnet while watching hyeprterminal.

I'd suspect cracked solder connections on the surface mounted LAN jack. I've fixed more bad LAN jacks than I care to remember.

I did suspect that first and tried to gently see if the port moved around but ping worked so it strayed me from that thought.

Maybe try removing all the IP settings through the serial port, reboot, and then re-program them. Sometimes that can shake out a bug.

Ok I returned today to install the new cabinet.
Power down
Swapped software
Power up
Change IP address
Test
OK on their network

Left site, got an email lost browser connection.
Called contact but she answered instead of AA
CP Down!!

Walked her through replacing with brand new patch cord and moving to another port then reboot.
All ok

Except the dreaded email again an hour later.

Going back tomorrow but this time I suspect the PCMCIA card is corrupt so going to replace it.

My only concern is Nortel Guy and his video states at the 2:15 mark about some other tech telling him changing it via serial may cause corruption but I do not know if they meant the cabinet or card.

I've never gotten corruption changing the IP address through the serial port, but I'm sure it's possible. I always dreaded seeing Exception 1000 while watching a CP bootup through the serial port. A handful of times I was able to clear this error by reprogramming all the IP info before it got to Exception 1000. That might be the corruption they're referring to in the video.

I replaced the feature card on Tuesday and started programming mailboxes, after a dozen mailboxes the system crashed and became inactive.
I replaced the 100 with a 150 and inserted same feature card, system came up but F981 displayed "Exiting"
Performed REINSTALL
Programmed from scratch
All ok days later

It appears as if 2 faulty replacement cabinets in a row, 1st one with losing http access and 2nd with full crashing.

I guess it does not like swapping software from 100 to 150, is this normal?

They shouldn't care which software is in them. The only difference is the storage capacity of the cards. Usually 64MB for the CP100, and 128MB or 256MB for the CP150.

This is true from scratch but the book says you cannot backup from 100 and restore to a 150 and why I thought maybe once you program something the software is then imprinted as 100.

Maybe it's something about the sekur file that is generated during a backup.
