If changing the cabling was the solution for your "birdies" then it would appear the issue was not with the switch hardware, but with poorly constructed cables.
There are a LOT of CAT-5 and CAT-5e labels on cables out there that simply aren't. There's a list of specs involved, fairly lengthy one, all of which must be met to qualify a cable at a specific grade. Most cables that fail a check because they missed something in the termination procedure (not signal routing). ______________________ Clay Autery MONTAC Enterprises (318) 518-1389 On 2/5/2016 3:48 AM, Larry Gauthier (K8UT) wrote: > John, > > I had a similar situation here with a LinkSys switch.
