Where would I plug in what if I were to use the switch that I had with it? Incoming connection into the basic FastEthernet port? Outgoing connection out of the second FastEthernet port? I believe I tried that and it didn't work...
I should be using straight-through cabling for this, right?
How I had it setup+didn't work
Incoming connection goes into FastEthernet 0/1, outgoing connection to switch goes from FastEthernet port 0/0 to the first port on the switch. I then used the switch to connect both computers into ports 2+3. I would've thought thats how I would set it up, but it obviously didn't work...Perhaps I need a crossover cable somewhere? ( I've always been bad at determining which type I need when setting up a network with these things...
Next hour, I'll see how it goes. Might try switching out to a different router, these have been known to crap out on us. |
