hi there i recently bought a ds 108 now i'm trying to run my broadband
into it and the from it to my second pc and xbox problem is when i
first turn on my 2nd computer which has a cat 5 cable running from it
to the hub the light on the hub will light up great but after after a
few mins it goes out and therefore isnt sending the broadband to the
pc the uplink is working fine,

does any1 know what the problem could be

thanks
 
either the NIC in the machine, the Hub or the Cable is going bad.
When the 'led' goes out on a router or a switch, this generally means
there is no connection at all. I would check the cable first. try
another port.
 
but would it light up and the go out if it was the hub or cable, maybe
it the nic as u say
 
hi again ok i tried wiring up my xbox to this hub and it seem to be
getting the internet connection ok, so at the min the hub is getting
the connection into it and will send it out to the xbox but when i
connect a ethernet cable from hub to 2nd pc the lights go out and no
connection is found now the ethernet card in the 2nd pc is only new
and if i run a ethernet cable direct into it, it works fine but when
i trying running through hub it doesnt work

does any1 know what the problem could be is there any settings i have
to change on the pc windows 98

cheers
