Well, this /kinda/ off-topic[0] here, but anyway: Yes, usually you need a x-over cable whenever there´s something called an "up"- or "cross"-link port. I don´t know why the manufacturers make ports called uplink or the like (because I can do whatever I want with every port no matter what they call it), but such is life. 0: So reply-to: sender cheers, &rw -- -- Russell Foster: "Tell me $DEITY what have I done to deserve this?" -- David P.
