RE: Re: Network Frustration - Help Please!

Patrick,

Thanks for the wise words. After sitting back and thinking about it, I
eventually traced the problem back to the hub at Node 0. I replaced this
with the spare switch, and everything now works just fine (if a little
slowly!). Now I need to review the thread a few days back about
monitoring network performance and I'm there.

I love this group!

Thanks again,

Julian

You need to divide and conquer. If the switch has nothing connected
to it in the loft, do you still see this behaviour? If not, try
adding one device at a time until you detect the "faulty" device.
This may provide further insight.
One possibility is that you have a duplicated IP address on your
network, although I'd expect that to manifest itself through random
broken connections rather than huge bursts of activity.
