Interestingly I had a similar problem. However connecting to different
port on the switch worked!!??
I found that in most(?) of the switches actual hardware handling is for
8 ports x n. So putting the wire from a client using ISA 10BaseT NIC to
any of the first 8 ports worked but did not work from port 9 to 24!!!
Andy's solution is better...if possible get newer NIC's but watch out
for older clients with ISA bus NIC's
