Bought a baystack 252, any way to change segments without a 250?

I goofed and bought a Baystack 252 for my home. It's a 10/100 Hub, but in order to change any settings you need a Baystack 250 to control the 252. My problem is, for whatever reason by default 10mpbs hosts are segmented from the 100mbps hosts. This is a problem since I bought this thing for LAN parties and not everyone has 100mbps NICs. Anyone have any ideas on how I can change this without getting a Baystack 250?
 
The 252 does not have a bridge between the 10 and 100 segments. You need a master hub with cascade cable. Master hubs are either Baystack 250 or 253 which both have the bridge.
