[QUOTE="cazabam, post: 336142, member: 17895"] You say you can make it "crash" - what exactly does it do? If it's intermittent dropping of the network connection, the first thing I'd check is the cable. A dodgy cable can look like a strange computer-based network error and restarting it appears to fix it, but actually it's just wiggling the cable and forcing the network connection back up. Basically, if it works on one network and not another, it points to some aspect of the network rather than the machine itself. This is especially true if wireless presents no trouble. There's not difference between a 'mac only' and 'mixed' network at the network level - they're all the same technology. [/QUOTE]
