I have a NIC that goes offline on it's own. It does not say it's diasabled
but if I disable and re-enable the adapter everything is OK. Any ideas?

Try disabling the Power Saver Features of the Nic.

Thank you Phillip. That was the first thing I had tried but it has done this
2 more times since then.

I cannot ping the server. When I look at the NIC in Neteork Properties there
is nothing to indicate that there is anything wrong. No event log errors. If
I disable and then re-enable the NIC it works fine.

Thanks

Ok. Well I have no other suggestions except to replace the Nic. I had a Netgear
Nic in a laptop act like this,...you had to slide the nic out then reinsert to
let it be re-detected. Replaced the Nic with a new one, no more problem.
