No, the LinkSys has a built-in switch, not a hub, so any speed is OK.

Sothing just hit me tho'. Ethernet switches auto-sense speed, and if 
it isn't properly sensing your Global Village`'s speed, that probably 
where your problem is coming from. If you can somehow force the one 
of the Ports on the LinkSys down to 10mbit half-duplex, it should 
work. I RAn into a similar problem trying to hook a old IIci into a 
Cisco switch.

There is somthing you could do to get around the auto-sense problem, 
get a second super cheap 10baseT hub, plug your 2400 into it, and 
then the cheap hubs uplink port into the LinkSys.

If you just need ethernet for DSL, get a cheap used ethernet card off of eBay.
