Hi. I have a rather strange problem. I recently installed a pretty big home network at my place, It's a quite normal network looking like this: [Cable Modem] -> [Gigabit Router] -> [Gigabit switch] -> [Computers]. One cable goes from the switch about 70 meters to a wireless accesspoint in a house across the yard, and one cable goes about 45-50 meters upstairs to my office. It works like a charm for everyone and I get full speed when I plug in the cable directly to my computer, but when I plug the cable to an 10/100 switch upstairs in my office (I wanted to connect my laptop and fileserver) I only get 10mbps (Yes the switch runs on Full Duplex) and when I change back to plug the cable directly in my computer it still only gives me 10mbps untill I go downstairs and change port on the first switch and wait for like 5 minutes, it goes back to full speed. All the equipment is brand new and top of the line hardware (For home and small buissness networking) Anyone have any idea what the problem can be?
Thanks!
Thanks!
