Subject: Box stops communicating with switch on reboot

Hi I have a couple of netopia routers with 4/8 port switches. When  I 
take down my linux box and reboot, it won't connect unless I reset the 
switch.

This in itself was livable I am the admin, I just have to remember to 
reset the switch or have someone else do it if I am not on site.
Now, I reloaded an XP box on a linksys switch that is having the same 
problem.

Is there something I am missing on this. do I need to open a port on the

computers so the switches can see them easier? They end up working after

resetting the switch, not something easy to do or remember every time 
you or your users reboot.
