There is always something not quiet working. I celebrate they seldom all show up on the same day. AR seems to be a consistent contributor.

In such cases it is not like you can go somewhere and relax, you must be present when the one wearing the cape shows up.

Solution: Installed updated driver on Cisco hub.

RESPONSE: "I'm just not buying it! But it sounds good and it's working so , "I owe, I owe, its off to work I go."
