Quite possibly. A router or switch will automatically adjust for the correct connection. In the "old days" a crossover cable was needed if one directly connected two computers without going through a switch or hub. It is quite possible that even some more recent network cards do not have this automatic adjustment. BTW, a few months ago I needed to replace a faulty 5 port switch. The replacement cost me about $15, brand new including shipping, on eBay. -- mlsstl ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mlsstl's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9598 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85420 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
