I just got a new Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P mobo from Newegg and I am trying to decide whether to RMA it back for a new one.
The Realtek ethernet seems to take forever to connect to my DSL provider. When I boot up and everything else is up and running....I am still sitting there waiting for my internet connection for sometimes more than a minute longer. It seems like forever when you are waiting.
I am running through a Linksys router that has 3 other computers connect but they seem to connect in a normal amount of time.
Gigabyte told me to try another ethernet card but i don't have one to try.
Once connected it seems to work ok but its just the initial connection speed is painfully slow. Is this normal for this board?
