Re: Re: FAQ 10/100 Hubs Block Other Speed Traffic

All,

    I switched from the 10/100 auto sensing Linksys hub to a synoptics 10MB
hub and it looks like things are working now. I tried getting the Linksys
working by forcing all adapters connected to the hub to 10mb, but I still
could not get it to work.
