Is it really a hub or are you just referring to yous switch as a hub? Assuming you have a switch I'd attempt to set full duplex without turning autoneg off... that sometimes helps. You might also try emerging the unstable ethtool3 as it supports more cards then the default ethtool2 and has some bug fixes. Some cards work better with mii-diag so you might try that as well. kashani -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
