My point here is that if you have a Linux class problem then I'm not sure how reassuring a Windows verification is going to be.
In this case it is, because it shows that the hardware works. And he also setup up a static configuration in Linux, and it worked. It is dhcp which does not.
Indeed, and that means you've missed my point. The Windows side shows the hardware works, BTU having a Linux version that shows the hardware works also show the 'how' and allows for a an A-B comparison between the Linux system that works and the Linux system that doesn't. It's not that the same information couldn't have been pulled out of a Windows set-up by someone who knows enough about Windows to do so, and I suppose you could say that someone 'equally knowledgeable' about Linux, like Thee and Mee and the others that that the OP expected to respond, but a Linux-to-Linux comparison would be easier to investigate and a working Linux would reassure the OP that a it isn't intrinsically a Linux vs Windows problem. And yes, Knoppix does good with DHCP as well.
