Hi Peter [got it right. now, originally sent to Colin, sorry if late]<br><br>Most replies seem to focus on switches/network
cards/type&make, however my experience of this is that often
cabling gets chafed in doors/wheeled on/trodden on/pulled etc & I
presume you have tried unplugging switch cleanering & replugging
&/or replacing cables?<br>You should have at least one more modern
managed switch in circuit as you are probably getting packet/path
crashing/storms, as has been suggested<br><br>Aitch :)<br><br><br>> Date: Fri, 15 May 2009 11:42:27 +0100<br>> From: pchilds@bcs.org<br>> To: kent@mailman.lug.org.uk<br>> Subject: [Klug-general] Network Switches<br>> <br>> Just rack every one brain.<br>> <br>> I have a small network made up of a number of Unmanaged Switches we<br>> have gathered over a period of time.<br>> <br>> Its about 40 PC wired round about 8 unmanaged switches.
