FileSharing, no Internet over Hub?

#1 Tue, 13 Aug 2002 - 01:06

So the hub i've been using forever is a very old 16 port 10 base compaq "repeater" hub. Its very old and very big, but i got it cheap way back and it worked great, if not slow. Well I just bought a new one on the net, its a new 8 port 10/100 hub, its tiny, a spec of a thing compared to my old one. Problem is, I can fileshare over it no problem, but I can't get internet over it. My router machine can surf away, and IPNR is running, but with that hub in between, none of my other machines can get to ANYTHING on the internet. But i can do local stuff no problem, and switching back to the old big slow one brought my internet right back. This is the weirdest thing?!

would you please post the new hub's brand and your machine's specs, so that we may try to help you?

thanks

The Hub is an ASOUND 10/100 8 port hub. The two machines that are 100 capable are my new server, a PowerTower Pro 225 and mY Gigabit dual 533 G4. Both of these machines are running X. My router will soon be the PowerTower, but for now it is still my QUadra 700 running 8.1 and IPNetRouter.
