I've got a version 4 Siemens 3700 with an HG card that I can no longer communicate with. I attempted to change the ip address via the serial cable but never got a login prompt. I then connected directly to the HG card by changing my pc's ip to the same range of the card and using a crossover cable. I got a login screen with Internet Explorer using the ip followed by :8085. After login is it got stuck at "Please wait" Switching back to Procomm I saw text going by indicating the card now had an ethernet connection. Tried reseting the card via Maintenance & even reseating, still no luck. After rebooting I never get a login. Sounds like the card itself is bad? Was fine before making a change on our network. I heard the cards are big bucks. I'd rather just replace the thing with a Rolm Mod 10 like we have in other sites.

Make sure you have compatible software version in the hipath and the hg card. You can find a compatibility chart in de maintanance release notes.
Next thing to try is using internet explorer 6. Internet explorer 7 does not always display the pages correct.

Yes, the confusing world of Siemens. It seems so unnecessarily so after working on other products. I'm on a different pc now, I'll check if the one I was using has IE 6 or 7. I can log in with the serial cable consistently but it still hangs when trying with IE.
