I believe there's a bad NIC on my network that is causing traffic. I am not familiar with 3com hubs. Is there a way to tell which workstation has a bad NIC through the HUB?
 

hello..

you 3com hub can detect a faulty connection, the LED will be of different color from the rest (usually red). faulty connection can mean bad nic, bad cabling or any other anomaly...

if suspect that you had a 'bad nic' try swapping nic..
