it sounds as if you have an ethernet wirig problem. to connect two hubs
togeather you need a crossover cable or you need to plug into a port on
one of the hubs configured to crossover. to connect a computer to the hub
you need a normal cable and normal port. try switching cables and/or
moving the cable to a different port.

"If users are made to understand that the system administrator's job is to
make computers run, and not to make them happy, they can, in fact, be made
happy most of the time. If users are allowed to believe that the system
administrator's job is to make them happy, they can, in fact, never be made
happy."
