763908 2009-04-12 03:20:00 i can get to 10.1.1.1 but it is very very slow. It starts to go to http: then asks for a security certificate, it might get to the login page given time, but ever so slow.

i can telnet to 10.1.1.1 and get as far as login.

763909 2009-04-12 03:32:00 That's strange that it's so slow - and indicates that something is wrong - it should be lightening fast, since it's on the local network. I would suspect that the wiring is faulty, or your patch cable and/or network card is faulty. somebody (208)

my network card is fine, it was working fine just b4 i left home.
i do have another patch lead here but it is a crossover one:-(


I guess by the time we figure it out it will be time to come home, after that then problem solved:-)

Thanks guys, and girl

Can you get to another room and test out whether this is the cable, the NIC or their cabling?

Dodgy, that motel is on my blacklist!

EDIT:Just read your post. I'd say its most probably them, test in another room if you can somehow

That's fine - modern network cards and switches will automatically detect it and "switch" it over so it works properly.

blam the exceptionally hot looking woman on the reception made no internet worthwhile.

Did try a second patch lead made no difference.
Laptop worked fine as soon as I got home.
Motel is going to get their tech to look at that room when he gets a chance.

no charge for the dial up either so that was a plus.

Many thanks for your help guys.
