Abstract

See full text

A network communication method used in a network communication apparatus is provided that includes the steps outlined below. An external network communication apparatus is electrically coupled through a communication path. A communication capability packet is transmitted to the external network communication apparatus. Whether an acknowledgement packet from the external network communication apparatus is received through the communication path is determined. When the acknowledgement packet is not received, a single direction communication is performed within any single time period by using a time division communication mechanism such that an auto negotiation process is performed by exchanging the communication capability packet and the acknowledgement packet of both of the network communication apparatus and the external network communication apparatus.
