This worked like a charm once I plugged it into a pure 10 
MB hub. It failed
to work on a autosense 10/100 hub, but I guess that could 
be overcome by
setting the port speed manually.

Autosensing requires 2-way communication. :)

Uhm, yeah. :)  Also, some (most?) auto-sensing hubs contain a bridge
internally, so there may be the same issue with MAC table being
messed up like on switches. I have used the cable on pure 100 MB hubs
without problems though.

Glad it works for you.

Regards,
Frank
