The length of cable is not your problem. I am running one here that is about 200 ft long. I have been told by a guru that you can go up to 280 feet long.
Can you bring the house computer into the shop and connect using the 4ft cable. Probably something is not set up right in the house computer. Just my limited experience speaking. Robert J.

From the verizon westell2200 modem to the hub, out of the hub to my shop computer and also over to the house for a second computer. Both extensions are cat5 wire, only one is about 4 feet long and the other is about 75 feet long. The short one works fine but the long one won't. Both are wired identical. They both check perfect with the cable tester. It was suggested that it may work if wired differently. I need some suggestions before the wife performs a midnight castration on me!!
