Thanks for that, tomorrow I will try using a non-cross-over cable and see if that helps. Just one question though...if it was that..would it still explain it working fine at 100Mbps? i.e. when i plug the same cable into the other laptop it detects that with-out a problem(at 100Mbps). I will try it though.
I don't think changing the cable will help, but some newer NICs detect the partner's capability on the wire and automatically compensate, so cross cables aren't needed.
I think my G4 Mac does that, some Billion routers do. They're not _that_ new.
