Greetings! I know this isn't strictly a fedora issue! But I'm trying to setup (if possible) an old dlink dl-604 4 port router as a dumb switch/hub. Basically, all I want to be able to do is plug the device into my network, and then plug 2-3 additional fedora boxes into the 4ports I've disabled the dhcp settings on the box: -set the static ip of the box to be 192.168.5.200 -set the gateway to be 192.168.5.254 -set the dns to be 8.8.8.8 (google) -turned off every filter I could find -plug the computers/main eth into the lan ports only the network for this system/test already uses dhcp on 192.168.5.x the 1923.168.5.200 isn't used so using it for the box should be ok. the issue I have, is that I can only see one of the boxes when I plug both in, as if there's a conflict of some sort. Pluging one or the otther works, so I know the boxes/eth cards are ok. Thoughts/comments... thanks! ============================ The basic setup would be: dlink :dl-604 eth: 192.168.5.200 <<<<<<+ ^ ^ dell-1 ^ eth: 192.168.5.14 ----->>> ^ dell-1 ^ eth: 192.168.5.17 ---->>> ^ ^ ^ ^ main eth ------------------------>>>+ I've seen a great deal of 'net articles that state this should be easily doable. So I'm not sure of what the exact issue is.
