A-B-C-D. B is FreeBSD server (samba), the rest is win98 (C is split win/fbsd). C and D talks fine to B. A talks nicely to C (haven't tried to D), but = very poorly to B.=20 I got ping losses of 1 out of 3 to 4 from A to B, but no loss A to C. I then took the T-plug from A and put it on a hub, and UTP from hub to = A. Still 100% from A to C, but now no ping at all from A to B! What's going on? Standing waves? I got proper terminators either end. The cable is assembled of well 10 shorter pieces with "empty" T-plugs, = could that be a problem?
