well, we've got one of these little things, plugged it in, installed the mgmt software - it tells me my pc doesn't have a network card. well, i've checked and the NIC is stil there. 3com's website says try installing the software again, but no joy. try a third machine which has a 3com NIC and now it runs.
but it still can't see the AP on the LAN. I've tried using the suplied orange cross-over cable, used a known working X-over cable, used a known-working straight-through patch cable, tried plugging it into a hub, a switch, straight into my NIC. am i doing something wrong or is this unit faulty.
since 3com say the unit takes a couple of minutes to set up i could look pretty foolish here, but it would be cool to be able to use it anyway so i'm open to suggestions.
cheers
