That leaves the client setup, doesn't it. And it leaves IP address
conflicts across the net. Please ensure your NET.CFG material is ok first,
a likely problem area. Then ensure ARP tables have not memorized the old
Ethernet MAC address, and that any DHCP/Bootp table has the correct IP
material for the client.

Lan adapters and hubs et al are not our area of responsibility.
