The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Network Hangs... and then works after 5-10 Minutes

Asked by MadSector in Windows Networking, Internet Protocols

Tags: connect, dg814, network, hangs

I have a 3 PC network at home using a NetGear DG814 ADSL Router. All 3 PCs are using Windows XP.

The problem lies in Windows Networking. When I try accessing a shared directory on another pc (OR EVEN MY OWN), the windows explorer hangs for 5-10 minutes. It then wakes up and displays the contents of the directory. From that point on file access in that shared directory is working perfectly and is in fact very fast.

This behavious also happens whey I try to access one of my shared directories through My Network Places. It hangs for a few minutes and it then works perfectly.

I have to say that an Internet Connection from the router is always available to all 3 PCs with no problems. Also we had no problems playing games like Networked Serious Sam 2.

In our network conenctions We all have:
Clients for Microsoft Networks
    configured to use:
       Windows Locator
QoS Packet Scheduler
File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
    which is configured as:
       getting an ip from the router's DHCP server
       using the DNS server of the router
       gateway being the Router's ip again
       Enable LMHOSTS lookup
       and Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP

My NIC is an Allied Telesyn AT-2500TX Series PCI Ethernet Adapter (which is my main suspicion of the problem - however all other network uses eg internet connection or gaming work)

This is configured as
APM Wakeup - Disable
Early Tx Threshold - 38
Line Speed/Duplex Mode - Auto Detect
Link Down WakeUp - Disable
Magic Packet - Enable
Network Address (LAA) - Not Present
Receive Buffer SIze - 64K bytes


Any ideas ? I cannot understand why everything works except for Microsoft Networking
