Its a LinkSys 10/100 5 port Etherfast hub. I expect it probably is
something to do with it but it *should* auto-sense. I've noticed the
lights are on from as soon as the PC boots so it could be the driver is
missing something by the time it loads?

I will give it a go with another hub when I get a chance.
