I have a small network consisting of 3 computers. I have my Cable modem plugged into my 10mb base hub with 8 ports. My ISP provides 3 IP's so all my computers are plugged into the hub and have their own IP. Each computer had 2 nics so I can share files and the internet among them.
I upload high quantities of data to the internet with all 3 computers at the same time, and my collision light is pretty much always on. I am wondering if any of this data is getting lost?
Any help would be appreciated.
I know the collision packets are suppose to get resent, but if the collsion rate is high would some of them get lost?
