Can I replace the ethernet card on my Feb 2005 eMac?

I realize that my Feb 2005 eMac (CRT-17") workhorse drops the internet (cable ethernet) very often- can run fine for 2 hours then drops the connection 3 times in 15 minutes.  IS IT POSSIBLE to repair this or get a new "ethernet" card without spending a small fortune (i.e. for less than $200 and hopefully a lot less…)??
OR:  Add WiFi to this Mac, but that is not my first choice as it is the furthest away from my WiFi points (plus I have ethernet cable running directly to this eMac and it works great for other Macs when tested.  Just this eMac that is dropping the connection).
Thanks and regards,
Steve

It is definitely USB 2.0: (But 100 Base-T)--Mine is the 160 gb HD model
Are you thinking / saying that USB2 should be faster than I'm showing?
THANKS for any feedback and again, perhaps the hama-guy will reply tomorrow.
Best regards,
Steve Schulte

    Can I replace the graphic card with a better one in Satellite A300-14S (PSAJOE)?

  • Can i replace the WLan card on my Satellite Pro P750

    I purchased my P750 to run wirelessly on our 5GHz (802.11a/n) frequency network.
    Though I was informed it would work it does not. It appears that my hardware does not work on the "a" band.
    My question is can the card be reaplaced or is it built into the board. If it is in built can an extermal wireless card be purchased to do the job?
    Just in case you asked I have read the forums updated the drivers and enabled the "n" on the AdHoc advanced profile for my Atheros AR9002WB-1NG

    Hi
    The Wlan card is connected to the miniPCI port on the motherboard and its possible to remove/disconnect the card.
    But there could be still an compatibility issues between new device (Wlan chip) and the BIOS.
    I read here in the forum that someone has replaced the Wlan card and finally the notebook didnt boot up due to the compatibility problems between the Wlan and BIOS.
    So in your case I recommend using an external Wlan solution.
    The WLan stick is easy in use and should be compatible with most systems.

  • Can I replace the wireless card in my Macbook Pro?

    Can I replace the airport extreme card (Wireless G) to the new N card that come in the new MBP?

    Yes. It has been done. I have heard that the wireless n card for the mac pro will fit the macbook pro. I haven't done it yet though...I'm undecided about whether to update my laptop so i'm going to wait a while before i void my warranty.
    An apple dealer have offered to perform the installation but can't guarantee it will work, and say it will void my warranty but that's up in a month anyway... I'll let you know if i do it.

  • Can I Replace the WiFi Card in my dv6-2106ea

    I want to be able to replace the internal Broadcomm 43225 WLAN NIC in my dv6-2106ea laptop with an Intel Advanced-N 6230 (to add 5GHz support). Will this work, or will the locked-down InsydeH20 BIOS complain?

    Hi,
    I have a laptop from the same series (see the signature) and have modded BIOS on it. That laptop definitely support Intel 5100 wireless chip (the part number is in the maintenance guide and I can provided if needed). I can also send that BIOS so you may flash it and use any wifi you want..

    Hi:
    Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.
    http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02642701.pdf
    Supported wireless cards are listed in chapter 3 starting on page 24.
    From the looks of it, you have a choice of the Atheros AR9280 802.11a/b/g/n 2x2 WiFi Adapter, or the
    Broadcom 4322 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN adapter.
    You must only get one of the cards listed in the service manual and they MUST have the HP part # on them, or they WILL NOT work in your notebook.
    Make sure you choose a card with the part # listed for your locale.

  • Can I replace the graphics card on Tecra M2?

    I have a Tecra M2 and the screen shows verticle lines across the entire screen. These lines also show up when plugged up to a regular screen.
    I checked the device manager and it says the nvidia card "cannot start." Troubleshoot had me uninstall and reinstall, no luck.
    Next option is to unplug and then plug back in, but is this possible? If it is separate I'd rather just replace the card. Thanks for any help.
    Chase

    According to your error description it sounds really like a GPU (graphic processing unit) malfunction.
    Unfortunately, this is a serious fault and without a hardware replacement you will be not able to solve this problem :(
    This is a worth case because you cannot replace only the graphic card. You have to replace the whole motherboard because the GPU is soldered on the board and cannot be removed easily.
    There is nothing to do buddy.
    Seems you have to contact a technician for assistance.
    Good luck

  • Can LabVIEW acess the ethernet card MAC adress by any dll ?

    I've seen other postings telling that it is possible to acess the MAC adress using IPCONFIG/all by DOS command and using system exec. I also saw that it is possible (under windows 2000) change this number under configuration. I tried and it really changes ! I was wondering if it is possbile to use any windows dll to acess this MAC Adress ?
    RKO

    Hi Gurdas,
    I found a couple example programs that might help you out.
    I have attached a GetMacAddress.vi that uses a CIN to make calls to Windows API to return the MAC address of the computer.
    The second example Get_Remote_MAC_Address.vi will retrieve the MAC address of a remote computer on your local subnet. It uses calls to the System Exec VI which calls the Windows utilities "ping" and "arp" which return this information. It then parses the MAC address and returns it. Unfortunately the "arp" command does not properly return the MAC address when fed the IP address of the computer that runs it, so if you feed the VI the IP address of the computer that is executing the VI, it will attempt to use "ipconfig" to get the local computer's MAC address.
    Note that because these commands are Windows-specific, these examples will work only with Windows operating systems.
    Hope this helps. Best of luck!

  • HT201328 My iPhone is from Japan and I want to activate it here in the Philippines because I'm living here. I have lost the original SIM from Softbank and replaced it with a new SIM card from Globe. How can I use the SIM card from Globe?

    My iPhone is from Japan and I want to activate it here in the Philippines because I'm living here. I have lost the original SIM from Softbank and replaced it with a new SIM card from Globe. How can I use the SIM card from Globe?

    You cannot. The iPhone is locked to Softbank, and only they can unlock it. Problem is that Softbank will NOT unlock the phone, as they do not offer iPhone unlocking.
    Buy an iPhone in the Phillipines.
    PS Before you go on a rant at Apple, be aware that Apple does NOT unlock phones and they do not set unlocking policies. The carriers (Softbank in this case) set the unlocking policy.

  • Can I use the ethernet port ....

    Can I use the ethernet port on the ATV to connect my blue ray p[layer to the internet using the ATV as a wireless card??
    If so how??

    I might be next in line on the airport extreme! Right now wireless is working better since the latest upgrade to iTunes, but hardwire is the way to go. Only problem is that ISP connections is in my office and my Home Media is downstairs. I was thinking of setting the Airport Extreme as a repeater in order to access ISP and then used the ports in the back for iTunes and ATV.

    Hi,
    Upgrading graphics chips on laptops is very difficult and mostly impossible because the chips are soldered to the motherboard. You can upgrade the graphics chip by replacing the motherboard with a compatible one which has a more powerful graphics chip. In your case it is a mobo with an Nvidia GF GT650M with 2GB of DDR5 RAM. However, the motherboard costs approx $600. The part number you need is:  682040-001.
    It looks like M7series laptops are compatible with Dv7-6000 series laptops. See a service manual:
