do it please
do it please
Hi squibbly, I too have spare computer and I have already set it up in
networking Using a CAT 5e crossover cable with my two NIC 100/1000
cards. Of course the spare computer doesn't access the Internet can
use the printer of my primary PC.
[Q] What's the difference between CAT 5e patch cable and CAT 5e
crossover cable?
[A] The difference has to do with the wiring of the cable and the
situation in which you will use the cable.
On a CAT 5e patch cable, the wiring configuration is identical on both
ends of the cable.
On a CAT 5e crossover cable, the wiring of pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 are
"crossed-over" to pins 3, 6, 1, and 2.
CAT 5e crossover cables are used in situations where two devices have
the same interface, for example, connecting a hub to a hub, or a
switch to a switch, or even when patching a hub or switch into a
wallplate.
