Hello Tracie
Well im glad we were of service .. though Motley Crue ? hmm I see myself
more Magnum [1] any way I am glad that the cable worked well and that
the Network card helped . 

Like others here I would suggest that you check for a Wake On Lan
setting in your Bios ..[2] most of all its important to raise the
interesting question after you switch off the wake on lan ....

Why is the NTL box broadcasting stuff to your Network card in the first
place .... ? hmmm 

Anyway .. its late .. im offski

[1] The band, not tom selleck.
[2] Hopefully your bios is prompting you to press F2 or Del or F12 to
enter setup before it starts Windows. [3]
[3] This would happen if it started Linux as well but hey with linux it
would be more interesting.
[4] yep the pretentious spelling
