Hub-to-hub networkHi,
I've been trying to connect my pc to the network and have bought a hub do connect it to the main hub. My problem is that, one of the computers (mine) connected to this new hub can't receive the network signal, or it won't be transfered completely. I've done everything possible to solve that problem. But I still couldn't identify its cause. Some people say it's because the computer is too far from the hub, which requires a longer cable than the others do. And this too long cable can´t not work out of limited size. What's wrong? Is there a different way of connecting the cable to the plug before plugging it into the hub itself? I mean, is there a way of crossing them in the RJ connector? Hi
Long cable means more than 326 feet. Otherwise it might be the type of the cables used to connect Hub To Hub. CAT5e Straight or Crossover, what should I use? http://www.ezlan.net/faq.html#crossover Jack (MVP-Networking). <nandotel***@gmail.com> wrote in message news:1165088679.383244.327010@j72g2000cwa.googlegroups.com...

need a crossover cable to connect the two hubs. Alternatively if one of them has a MDI/MDIX switch or an uplink port, you could use a regular cable and connect one end to the MDIX switched port or the uplink port. -- Richard G.
