I would if I actually still recalled the details.

Netbind basically gets the pieces of the protocol stack connected and
talking. Usually this should be pretty quick.

The cmd.exe you are referring to is probably the sesison to runs
mptstart.cmd. If you use dhcp, this is where the ip address assignment
happens. For static IPs, it should be quick.

They are.

I guess, it could be a driver problem. My setups could care less if the
cables are in or not as long as I don't try to access the network.
