Recently I changed the IP address on the switch so it is using 192.168.0.5 and 255.255.255.0 as a network. It doesn't seem to be a gateway address configured at this time and it don't work using the route command. I have rebooted the Linux system several times because I tried to use DHCP instead and I couldn't deactive it.. Anyway, what happens now is that if I ftp: ftp.debian.org, it brings up the IP numbers and it says it can't connect. The connection is sleeping for 20 seconds. I will not do anything more at this time until I get more information on how to fix this. My theory here is, if I managed to fix the gateway on the Linux system, everthing "should" be alright. I don't think I have done anything wrong in the Windows system, then of course, I can't be 100% that I didn't accidently change something, but I don't think so. Greetings Björn
