Do you think the hub or the switch will fix the problem. I can get one tomorrow.

ipaddress is 192.168.0.4 and 255.255.255.255

Please post both IP addresses (Windows 7 cliient and Solaris server) and both matching netmasks.

That netmask 255.255.255.255 is wrong (it's an open broadcast). By convention for a 192 "Class C" private network should be 255.255.255.0 .

Your ping times are the kind of ping times I see across a badly lossy wireless link! Over a loopback I'd expect 4 milliseconds or less, usually much less. Either something's very wrong with the cable or either card, or you're not talking to the machine you think you are.

Check arp /a on Windows, see if the MAC address you get for 192.168.0.4 matches the MAC address of the Solaris server's NIC. (0:3:ba:b:5e:b1 ? I've never seen a MAC address like that, does Solaris drop leading zeroes there or something?)

You hadn't pinged 192.168.0.4 recently enough for it to still be in the arp cache. Ping it and try again.

IMHO your netmask (255.255.255.255) is wrong and it will affect every node on your LAN. Do you have a trained Network Adminstrator available who can advise?
