Step 4 Ping the PC from the Cisco 1604. If the PC has not yet used any IP services or drivers, the connection might fail. The preferred method is to ping the router from a PC on the LAN first:
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5,

Success rate is 100 percent (5/5),
Step 5 If you know that the Ethernet interface is up but not performing correctly, enter the show interface ethernet 0 command. This example shows errors in the counters because the Ethernet cable was not plugged in:
