Can anyone point me to a source or tell me if there is an easy way to do packet collision diagnoses? I have noticed the collision light on my HUB (Linksys 5-port 10BT) light up more often then the past. It doesn't happen alot during modem operations since its so slow..but at a higher speed transfer...like If I transfer a 5 meg file from the unix box to my windows machine the collision light on the HUB stays pegged the whole time. I thought this was from using a cheap network card clone, so i upgraded my ethernet cards. both the unix box and my windows machine are using high quality PCI 3COM cards..but I'm still getting these collisions. I have also tried a number of different RJ-45 cables...nothing helps. Any advice would be appreciated.
