Thanks for your response Ceejay. I agree, the symptons are like that. But I have tried both cables using the switch and they are both ok. And one of them is crossed, the other one not. I have checked the order of the colored cables at the ethernet plugs.
Strange enough: using either of the cables for a direct connection I see the ethernet LED of the wlan bridge lighting up and flashing every now and then. So according to that LED there ist an ethernet connection and there is traffic (the SB trying to get through to the server). So either the bridge or the SB "crosses" the connection when needed (I do not know the technical name of that functionality, but my iBook does this too so that there is never a need for a crossed cable). Can there be a negotiation problem when both devices try to "cross" the cable (BTW: does the SB do this?) -- thomashb ------------------------------------------------------------------------ thomashb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1244 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=25450 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
