Hub collision when using a surge protector by zaher1988 on 12-23-2005 at 11:31 AM
Heloo there,
As i put the lightning and antistroms surge protector to my cable that's connected to my home's hub, i get a collision as the link/act led starts blinking very fast, and get a request timed out when pinging.
so i tried different protectors, but same issue.
how ever if i connect it directry to my laptop, it works.
i have a cabled broadband, so my cable is connected to a switch on someroof, then to a wirless unit.
many thanks
