CONFIGURING THE 28115 FOR BEST SPEEDS

[servergms]

H, I got the 28115 set-up thanks to you all. But now I try to use mine as a hiub which when iI talked to nortel they told me is very possible. But I host online multi-player games and can be having any connection interruptions what-so-ever.When I host the games on the switch I get extreme collisions going on. How can I set up the switch to avoid this? I need to know the best configuration settings.Thanks

Best Regards

yes it did help. Thanks a bunch. and setting all the ethernet cards to the same speed as the switch port did too. I still see collisions going on but the connection interruptions have stopped.Thanks

If you can get the cards and ports to 100/full duplex the collisions should drop off even more, but any setting where they match should be better than before! I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.

thanks that helps too. On the screen it says minimum 4% max 8% and cpuaverage 7% can I change these to a higher number? would that also help? thanks

lower is better, more power in reserve, but 92% in reserve is not bad! I tried to remain child-like, all I acheived was childish.
