I am trying to make a couple of crossover cables so that two computers can talk to each other without a hub. I was told that in order for that to happen, a crossover cable needs to be made... does anyone have a diagram that I can get?
 
Sure it is simple:<br>
<br>
On Connector ¦ On Connector<br>
One: ¦ Two:<br>
Pin 1 ----------- Pin 3<br>
Pin 2 ----------- Pin 6<br>
Pin 3 ----------- Pin 1<br>
Pin 4 ----------- OPEN <br>
Pin 5 ----------- OPEN<br>
Pin 6 ----------- Pin 2<br>
Pin 7 ----------- OPEN<br>
Pin 8 ----------- OPEN<br>
<br>
It is easy to understand because if you were to draw it out on a diagram, you would see the cables cross. 1 to 3, 2 to 6, 3 to 1, and 6 to 2. Leave all the rest open.<br>
