It means that the two ports / cards have not been "installed". If you click on the port / card you should see a button on the right hand side that allows you to 2install" the card. Do this for both of the ports / cards.

Are you using the onboard NIC, or has another NIC been installed? If the latter does the NIC have dual ports?

If you have installed the Compaq network software you should see an icon at the botom right hand side of the screen. Open this and you should see both ports. Highlight the port you want to use and click install on the right of the screen. You do not need an additional card. Any more propblems please post another question

Chris,
Here is what happened:The person who originaly configured this server renamed two Local Network Connections for each ports to "Top" and "Bottom" for his convinience. By default their names are:Local Network Connections and Local Network Connections2. These question marks that we see now are from renaming.
Thanks for your help Chris
