Any 10BaseT type Ethernet connection between any two devices without the use
of a hub requires a crossover cable.

Subject: Stupid question..
Can I plug a PC directly from the NIC to the ethernet port on a 2500 series
router?
It won't work for me. Router doesn't recognize a link directly to the PC
but it does
when plugged into a switch. I assume it's a straight vs. crossover thing
but from
what I was told, you only need a crossover cable when plugging like devices
together
(ie- router to router, switch to switch, etc.).
Any ideas?
What I am trying to do is have a pc on the e0 int of one router, feed
through a frame
relay connection to another router and then out of the e0 int on that
router to a switch.
Thanks in advance for helping out.
Roman
