3/29 I have an old 10T hub, is there ANY use for it?
\_ sure, they're fine for home networking. (You don't have more
than 10 megabit uplink, do you?) -tom
\_ you're absolutely right but it is slow when I do file transfers
at home between my 3-4 computers.
\_ Espeically when a 100MB switch costs $20.
\_ And a GigE switch costs $40.
\_ There's a cubicle at work with only one ethernet drop into it and
we have 3 computers in there split off a small 10BT hub. We're
out of 100BT switches and don't care enough to put in a purchase
order for one. Since these machines don't need huge bandwidth, this
is acceptable. |
