That's standard for cable.



I look on the package & hope marketing wasn't too high that day

That's what I do too

PS-yea I saw that. I assume the switch is the router?

I would also assume so.

As long as I don't hook up her machine to the D-Link, I like it

If I hook her cat5 up, it kills the WAN connection. Any suggestions?

 

[HomeLAN]

Other than trying both a different CAT5 cable and NIC on her box, not off the top of my head. I'm not an expert here, but I once had a wonky switch that liked to give off mucho packet collision with more than one machine hooked up. Solution to that was a new switch.

Try a different port on the switch, too.

 

[Gonz]

Done different ports, looking for some magical combo...none yet. I set it up static, no good. Weirdest damn thing. I'm going to try a different cable when I have access to one (later today). The NIC will be a little harder. I may have one hiding here somewhere.

 

[rrfield]

Perhaps I missed it, but does the router die when you hook up any second machine or specifically your wifes machine? If you hook up her PC first, does the thing die when you hook up yours second?

 

[Gonz]

If her machine gets wired via cat5 to the D-Link router, under all conditions, the WAN stops, the light goes black & the internet connection ends. We can network but neither of us can get out. If it's only her machine, she can't get out. If it's only my machine I can get out.

This does not happen with the Linksys router...where nothing changes but the router itself.

Oh Crap someone who has an internet link fast enough
to jusify Giga-bit ethernet! dang!!!

At the very least Ya gotta have a pure smooth running 100 Mbps
path running to do that baby justice

 

[Gonz]

I didn't want to do it. It's just one more piece to mess with in the event of trouble but, screw it. I routed her machine through the linksys & then into the dlink, which I'm tied to directly & we're both running top speed. (I'd still rather have only one router)

Riddle me that Batman.

So come and sit down have a drink and tell me
just exactly what is the network topology we are dealing with here...

 

[Gonz]

hell if I know...it works & I'm happy

 

[Winky]

Oh no no no
a 14 Mega bit connection must be tweaked to the nth degree!

lemme see if I can find my copy of DrTCP (or instantly dl it)


ah, here it is

D-Link serving as gateway & the Linksys as internal switch/router.

 

[Winky]

I don't understand what is the D-Link???

And why the Linksys?

But anyhow you seem to be getting the Max bandwith
the connection can provide.

 

[Gonz]

They are both multiport routers. Her comp won't hook up under the Dlink & we don't get full speed with the Linksys. It appears that using both routers forces them to half-duplex, which allows full speed ahead.
