    Hello,

    I recently purchased a new X60 tablet with the X6 Ultrabase dock. When the tablet itself is plugged into the network via Ethernet, it works as expected and all is right with the world. However, when sitting in the Ultrabase, the NIC on the docking station seemingly turns on and off every few seconds, as if the network cable is being removed. The only related entries in Event Viewer tell me "Hey, the network cable was unplugged." followed by the interface coming back up a few seconds later.

    I'm about to call Lenovo support, but I was hoping that maybe somebody could offer a simple suggestion to solve the problem. Thanks in advance for the help!

    Please disregard, this was a faulty dock.
