    Hi all

    My Satellite A300 network card orange LED stays lit all the time the laptop is on. No green flashing at all from the other LED when I plug in the ethernet. I upgraded the driver millions of times, Sometimes it works and after I restart back again to the dead state and no connection is detected. I tried diagnostics, utilities and everything I can. Is it faulty or has anyone encountered something like this before??
    My best regards

    The light stay on as long as it is turned on if you don't want to use it just slide the switch over to turn it off.

    I am talking about the wired ethernet LAN card not the wireless one :)
