Subject: 3com switch with 2.4.17
Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2002 11:54:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200203151054.LAA02530@mail.emit.pl> (raw)
I have a 486 which runs as a router, and I want to change to 2.4. After
boot and working out which order the ether cards are now found in, everything
is OK except I can't ping PCs connected to a 3com switch, which connects
to a ne2k-pci RTL-8029 card in the 486 via a hub. PCs directly connected to
the hub ping OK.
Does this ring any bells as to why this could be OK with a 2.2.13 kernel
but broken with 2.4.17?
My troubleshooting is normally a) check it electricaly (obviously OK as
it has worked with 2.2.13 for months) then check it pings.
How can I look further into this? eg looking at ethernet packets instead
of TCP/IP packets?
Yours
Ian
