Hi everyone, I have a problem with our network, we have 10 machines running on WinXP Home connected to a 10 Mbps Hub. 9 machines are working fine, i.e accessing their shared folders, etc. But we have one machine wherein it can connect to the network, access the shared folders of the other machines, but the speed is too slow even to the point that it will prompt "computer name no longer available". My suspicion here is either with the cable (i.e. length, crimping) or it is with the hub speed. Is there any way that I could determine the actual network speed of that machine via software? The network icon in the system tray states it is connected as 10 Mpbs, but I doubt if it is really running in 10 Mbps. Hope I could hear from you soon. Thanks.
