Hi there, I'm setting up a network of 5 comuters with a D-Link 16-Port 10/100Mbps Switch (DES-1016D).
Just finished to a working Gentoo Desktop [quite pleased with the results!] though the network is not really working. With just 2 computers the (the other one has gentoo w/o desktop) its loosing packets. The computers are all identical.

Code: Select all

Intercon root # ping 192.168.0.2
PING 192.168.0.2 (192.168.0.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.178 ms

64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=12 ttl=64 time=0.168 ms

--- 192.168.0.2 ping statistics ---
12 packets transmitted, 4 received, 66% packet loss, time 10997ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.166/0.170/0.178/0.010 ms

Any help will be greatly appreciated, I've got to get this ready to go in 10 hours.

heavy processor load? shoddy rj45? problems with interrupt sharing?

duplex problem? check with either ethtool or mii-tool
