> Swap the green and orange pairs. Thats all there is to it. Not necessarily. Nowadays many if not all the newer PCs are coming with a 10/100/1000 NIC, and the crossover cable with just the green and orange swapped will not be able to go above 100MB. If both of your PCs are 10/100/1000 and have auto detection to test the cable, they might work okay with a straight thru cable. Remember that 1000 requires both sending and receiving on each pair. > Most stores that sell computers now-a-days do carry cross-over cables.
If you use a 'crossover cable' make sure you label it conspicuously on both ends or make it a very bright and unique color, so that you _will_NOT_ try to use it for a straight thru cable, and end up wasting an hour troubleshooting a problem that's caused by the cable. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

AFAIK No. GBE always have MDI/MDI-X that detects pair wiring and adjusts accordingly. -- Robert >
