Even if the length of a UTP cable is short, it nowadays cannot transmit signals beyond about 33 feet, is there any special order for the 8 Wires in the cable, to transmit signals farther.
I have (3Com) Hub + 3Com NIC's
The problem is when connecting one computer with then Hub across UTP cable (straight through) about 13 Meter length the Port Led on the Hub blinking On-Off.
This case frequently happened with more than Network .
Thank you everybody.
 
For many reasons, [red]buy premade cables.[/red] If you absolutely refuse to, then read this thread in this forum:
