miku 0 Posted August 28, 2001 Hi Guys, I have been having this problem from yesterday. The collision led lights up if i transfer something on my network. The network speed is now very very slow. I tried chaning the network cards and the cables even. The collision is not stopping. The only thing left to change is the HUB. Do you guys think that the HUB can cause the problem. Any ideas. About program. I have Windows XP RC1, RC2 on machines. There are only two computes. I am using Simple RJ-45 Cables (No Cross Overs). Any ideas. ARC Share this post Link to post
miku 0 Posted August 28, 2001 One more thing I forgot to tell you guys. My brother ran a program called DRTCP on both computer. He tried to maximize the performance of internet before this happened. Something related to TCP Receive and MAXMTU Stuff. So I guess if i can restore those settings in registry it would be good. Anybody know DRTCP and how to restore Windows XP Original Setting. I guess they maybe the same as for Windows 2000. Let me know what you guys think. ARC Share this post Link to post
FatFish 0 Posted August 30, 2001 I think its the hub, but i could be wrong. I used to have a hub having the same problem too. The collision led blinks so fast that it doesn't look like its blinking. I went to get a new hub and its all good again. Share this post Link to post
miku 0 Posted August 30, 2001 Thanks for replying. Actually I found out the problem. I had two NICs on my server, one was a 100 and the other one was 10 Mbps. I connected my 100Mbps to the Hub (10Mbs Bandwidth) and the other to my internet. Since the hub had a 10Mbps Bandwidth, it was causing the problem. I reverted back to the orignal config, with the 10Mbps going into the hub and the 100Mbps connected to my cable modem Everything was ok then. No collision at all. Miku Share this post Link to post
