Okay, this makes no sense to me whatsoever... so can someone please explain to me what the issue is!? I have a HP laptop with the Realtek 8139 chipset. I was using a 50ft cat5e cable with it when i wanted to get the best transfer between my computers instead of wireless. Then one day it stopped working, so i figured it was the port or the cable. I tried a 6 ft cable and it works fine, so i determined it had to be the cable. I tried another 50ft cat5e and it doesnt work and then i tried a 50ft cat6 and it doesnt work either. could someone PLEASE explain to me why this isnt working? was there some driver update that affected this, is there some setting i can change? i know those sound like dumb questions, but i am perplexed...
Thanks in advance,
dan
