How can you can connect PC to switch with straight or cross-over cable, what is the difference between these two ways, Straight through cable vs Crossover cable? Why are their two types of cables? What do they do?Straight through cable means, the cable wire goes through straight, transmission wires over to the reception end. You use a crossover cable when you are connecting two PCs together directly (NIC to NIC). To connect Router to Router and Computer to Computer need Crossover and the usually the rest need Straight-through cable.

You use a straight-through cable when there is a hub, switch or router between the two or more PCs (NIC-Hub/Switch/Router-NIC). The is no difference in speed, it’s just a method of communicating. It depends on the hardware, all you need is either a free LPT or com port on each computer and a cable plugged into these ports between each computer.

The simple answer is a crossover cable is used when you are connecting two PCs together directly (NIC to NIC), to connect two computers to each other, you use a crossover cable. When two crossover cables are connected in series, as when going through a patch panel, the result would no longer be a crossover.

Take a good look at the picture above, it shows what I mean. In a straight through cable, both ends are arranged as end A, while in a crossover cable, one end is arranged as end B.

This can also help if you want to make a cable yourself

I’ve seen in another forum that it is better to be connected to the Internet through the ethernet port for usb not, is it true? Anyone can inform me step by step how I connect via Ethernet? Connect the cable to the router port and then do the same with the ethernet connection for my laptop but not connect …. I get an icon on the taskbar indicating that there is connection but at the moment of truth can not open any site, not connected the emule, the messenger is not working …. someone help me?

in theory should look for if you have enabled the port lan communications, that the look in control panel and then network connections, once have connected the RJ45 you have an icon on computers with the blue screen, but test to create a new connection, so you have to your left, you have an assistant.

Follow all the steps that you told me, when done effectively leaving me with a few computers a few blue icons on the taskbar but even so I do not have access to the network

After restoring the essential components, before closing the box back up, Ihooked up my computer and started it to make sure the fans were workingproperly and the storage drives were all in working order. I was able to getto the login screen with no problem, so I put the system back together andturned everything on. The computer booted up, but shut down before it got tothe login screen and would not start back up. I unplugged the Ethernet cablefrom the computer at which time, the computer tried to start itself up withno success. I unplugged it from the electricity for 30 seconds, and triedagain without the Ethernet connected. It started up, and I was able to login. While logged in, I connected the Ethernet cable with success, but when Iswitched on the cable modem, the computer shut down.I then disconnected the power cable from both the modem and the computer for 30 seconds. I removed the Ethernet cable completely and connected the USBcable instead. I switched on my computer and it booted up perfectly, and I was able to log on and surf the net again.

I then contacted my ISP to discuss this problem. The tech had me bring themodem and Ethernet cable to the nearest office the next day to get newequipment. Unfortunately, the computer still shuts down when I connect theEthernet cable and turn on the modem.

While my suspicion is that the on board Ethernet adapter is fried (probablybecause of the dust bunnies), I am hoping someone here might no if it mightjust be a setting I am overlooking. Otherwise, I will just cut my losses andget a new Ethernet card to connect to my computer.

CHELMSFORD, MA–(Marketwire – October 27, 2009) - Arbor Networks®, a leading provider of secure service control solutions for global business networks, today announced that Neo Telecoms, one of the premier infrastructure and IP transit operators in Europe, has selected Arbor Networks Peakflow SP platform (“Peakflow SP”) to deliver network-wide visibility and security against distributed denial of service attacks, together with comprehensive peering and transit analysis that will enable them to reduce peering costs, improve traffic engineering and perform network troubleshooting.

The de facto standard and security platform of choice for a majority of the world’s leading service providers, Peakflow SP leverages IP flow data to deliver a unique combination of pervasive visibility into network, application and routing traffic with real-time detection, mitigation and comprehensive reporting of network anomalies, all from one fully integrated platform. This enables Neo Telecoms to manage the impact of security threats as well as network issues.

“Pervasive visibility into network, application and routing traffic allows Neo Telecoms to make more informed decisions about security incidents, transit partners, network architecture, customers and new IP services,” said Raphael Maunier, Neo Telecoms chief technology officer. “The Peakflow SP platform is purpose built for sophisticated IP-based networks like Neo Telecoms.”

“Neo Telecoms is enabling the Internet Economy across Europe, delivering a full suite of innovative IP-based services to regional ISPs, international operators, SMB’s and international enterprises,” said Patrick Sonou, Arbor Networks country manager for France. “Peakflow SP delivers the security, visibility and control over the network that Neo Telecoms’s requires to maintain its leadership position.”

Arbor Peakflow SP also dramatically improves traffic engineering and capacity planning by correlating real-time topology information with traffic data. Peakflow SP allows Neo Telecoms to optimize their network and reduce costs by providing detailed visibility into the traffic that is leaving or entering their networks via peering or transit links. Peakflow SP provides insight into critical information such as BGP routing, MPLS VPNs, QoS and applications such as DNS, VoIP and P2P — enabling Neo Telecoms to automatically recognize hot spots and engineer the network for lower costs, higher performance and new services. Key benefits to Neo Telecoms include:

– On-Demand Packet Analysis – Deeper visibility into the network and traffic for troubleshooting, fault prevention, performance monitoring and security forensics. — Global Geography Reports – Analyze peering traffic by geography, market, most used services and threat activity. — Expanded Transit Peering Reports – Gain a better understanding as to where their customer traffic is destined beyond initial peers.
