If you don't use the default port (23) specify the actual port you use. If this works your problem is Windows or the NIC. Check the NIC card version and drivers - there is an article in the IBM U2 knowledgebase and some "suspect cards/drivers". If it's a Broadcom Gigabit card try changing the driver version or swap from (manufacturer proprietary) to 3COM version for instance. Usually a working combination is found - sometimes not. If you can't resolve it by driver or NIC config changes then change the NIC - or add a "cheap and cheerful" 100Mb/s NIC and use that LAN spur. A WWW search on the problem will throw up hits on a significant number of software packages.
