I may be way off base here, but if the switch is connected to a router, |
| 9 |
packets from one PC go to the switch and then to everything else |
| 10 |
connected to it, including both the other PC and the router. Is there |
| 11 |
any chance the router is passing packets back to the switch to get to |
| 12 |
the second PC? I can imagine that causing lots of problems. However, |
| 13 |
I would hope it is smart enough to know it doesn't need to do so, since |
| 14 |
both PCs show up on the same router port. |
