[iyonix-support] Something wrong with Iyonix ethernet


A few years ago I returned my Iyonix to Castle when my Iyonix stopped being 
able to obtain an address via DHCP. John Ballance advised that the ethernet 
chip on the motherboard be replaced.I am no longer seeing the DHCP problem (it 
gets an address fine), but I am seeing a couple of odd problems:1. FTPc takes 
about 60 seconds to connect to my Mac's FTP server on my local network using 
the IP of my Mac. Once it is connected, transfer speeds are fine.2. Netsurf 
hangs for 60 seconds when connecting to any website (I used slashdot.org as a 
test). During this time, CPU usage is 100%. I have reported this issue to the 
Netsurf mailing list, but have had no responses. If I reload the site, it may 
or may not download and display the content immediately.I have not altered my 
machine's configuration in a long time. It has remained the same for around a 
year. I have not changed any component of my home network either (I am 
connected via ethernet to a router, which is then connected to a cable 
modem).ekinfo, ektest 0 and eklog don't show any problems (with the problem I 
had last time before the ethernet chip was replaced, I saw errors there).Simon
