Some of the early Qube 2700 did not support net booting/OS Restore 
(you had to send the unit back to Cobalt for rebuilding, or take the 
drive out and put it in a 'real' MIPS Qube that did support OS 
Restore).  I don't recall how to tell if you have a non-net-booting 
Qube though.

Or, as others have said, it might simply be the NIC in your PC.
