Well guess what?

I have now performed the firmware upgrade which seemed to go well but now
my
laptop cannot see it! and the SNMP still does not work.........what a

Thing that surprises me is the card in the laptop always seems to be the

that does not have LED's light up? why is this?

Do I need to upgrade anything else?
