Hey everyone. Well, I ended up picking up a LinkSys cable/DSL router. My intent is to hook the Router into my linksys 5 port 10/100 switch.
Now, I should say connecting the Cable/DSL router to my PC directly seems to work, I can get to the router and to the net just fine.
But, hooking it up to the 10/100 switch through the 10/100 switch's uplink port seems to be causing a bit of nastiness. I can't get to the router to configure it at all that way, nor can I get to the net and the Link/Act light flashes on one of the ports on both my 10/100 switch and on the Cable/DSL router (hooked into the PC via patch cable, the light remains solid, no flashing).
Is there something I'm doing wrong here? Please make me feel like an idiot =)
