Brian,
this is cat 3. That might explain...
Well, the fact is the rating for that cable is really cat 1.
using a pair to make cat3.(unsheild cat 3)
That might be a problem.... But why can't I duplicate the problem
by sending a packet from/to C(which is the far away) and
shot packets into the LAN?
I am searching a web site for limit on different cable type.
