[Hidden-tech] Cat 5 comm cable question asked Aug 11... THANKS to Don, Robert, Bruce, Jan!

['David Morf']

You guys were on the money.  Turns out the cable was fine.  Here's what
happened.  The router has Ethernet 5 ports, 3 in use, and initially I'd
plugged the Cat 6 cable into the next (4th) port.  So this time I plugged
into the 5th port, and the whole shebang worked like a charm, end-to-end.
Maybe the 4th port was not properly setting up the signal, and the PC's
Ethernet  port couldn't auto-sense the input., as noted by Jan.  Bottom
line, thank you one and all, y'all got me out of bottom low gear. 
 
Cheers,

 

     David
