I've also got a 3Com 3C5x9 installed and apparently working. (pings okay?). Anyway I don't want to go buy or loan a UTP repeater for now so can I just cross wire the UTP cable and connect my other PC into the system ? If so can some kind soul please give me the pin outs ? Sorry if this seems like a dumb question but it seems feasible after all UTP only has 2 tx and rx lines. I don't have a 3Com manual handy or I'd just go try it, maybe I'll look on their site..... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP for Personal Privacy 5.0 Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBM86YypGPp7Xf7WuJAQFRgwP+NowrdpwWLfndwpWWhH6eYVHdvDYPWc7i 9Bt7yadfUxtMxqRM5SfhWo513qzHM0NMBnLQeukIu6Wjg/e6gFEr/puPjlpit5dh 8Dt+u4HAUNe5I/Wkzs2sF2n8HF7PZzxpKPzCO6zFUnoPN6a6RQg++7j/oIt43gWI M2bzfTWPO3M= =FLpt -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
