We have a guy here who doesnt quite stick the wires right to the end of the rj45 plug which cause problems on some computers and not on others.. (it may only be one wire, but make sure all of em go to the end)The other thing to test is unless you are running a switch set your network settings to 10mb half duplex or 100mb half duplex (depending on the hub) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/16355-help-with-cat5/#findComment-231683 Share on other sites More sharing options...
