What type of cables are you using for the connections? are they straight or cross? It could stop working if you change a straight with a cross.

Also if it has an 'uplink' port check to ensure you connect the internet link there

I brought a des 1008d swtich i want internet sharing with swtich .i connect all pc with this switch

You have to connect all the computers you have to the switch and connect your DSL or cable modem also to the switch and enable DHCP in it. Configure all your computers to obtain IP address automatically. This should work and you should be able to share the internet across the network

I checked my firewall. All cords are connected properly. The same

When using a router with your internet connection (cable, dsl modem etc.) hooked directly to the routers data port it will use the roughter's dhcp to assign ip addresses to other computer on the network. If you have your internet connection hooked directly to a computer and are using internet connect sharing then you must disable the dhcp service on the roughter because the internet connect sharing has its own dhcp and it will assign all the ip addresses. to get into the roughter's setup you open a browser (internet explorer, mozilla etc.) and type 192.168.1.1

Don't have internet connection

This particular 8-port Ethernet switch/hub has auto-negotiation on both speed as well as MDI, MDI-X.  Therefore, the problem is not with your switch/hub, it's probably with the particular port that you're connecting it to on your Router.  Make sure that it's the LAN side, not the WAN side.

D-link cant accesed internet 4pc

Most of DSL modems are connected to PC with USB cable...
n if ur server is connected with other pc on lan .. you can use internet sharing option available in winxp.

Following are the steps to enable Internetsharing for other pcs.


How to use Internet Connection Sharing loadTOCNode(2, 'summary'); To use Internet Connection Sharing to share your Internet connection, the host computer must have one network adapter that is configured to connect to the internal network, and one network adapter or modem that is configured to connect to the Internet.

On the host computer loadTOCNode(3, 'summary'); On the host computer, follow these steps to share the Internet connection:
  1. Log on to the host computer as Administrator or as Owner.
  2. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
  3. Click Network and Internet Connections.
  4. Click Network Connections.
  5. Right-click the connection that you use to connect to the Internet. For example, if you connect to the Internet by using a modem, right-click the connection that you want under Dial-up.
  6. Click Properties.
  7. Click the Advanced tab.
  8. Under Internet Connection Sharing, select the Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection check box.
  9. If you are sharing a dial-up Internet connection, select the Establish a dial-up connection whenever a computer on my network attempts to access the Internet check box if you want to permit your computer to automatically connect to the Internet.
  10. Click OK. You receive the following message: When Internet Connection Sharing is enabled, your LAN adapter will be set to use IP
    address 192.168.0.1. Your computer may lose connectivity with other computers on
    your network. If these other computers have static IP addresses, it is a good idea to set them
    to obtain their IP addresses automatically. Are you sure you want to enable Internet
    Connection Sharing?
  11. Click Yes.
The connection to the Internet is shared to other computers on the local area network (LAN). The network adapter that is connected to the LAN is configured with a static IP address of 192.168.0.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0

let me know if it helps.

best regards,

Internet & xbox live sametime Netgear 8-port 10-base-t Ethernet Hub en108

Does the xbox work when connected directly to the internet (not through the hub)? If so, there may be some kind of conflict related to sharing your internet connection between the PC and xbox, and I'd reccommend getting a router instead of a hub.

VLAN - and TRUNK

The trunk port of the switch is meant for cascading the switch i.e. you can connect another switch to that port for adding more computers.

For connecting to a multihomed PC (with 2 lan cards) Please type in static ip address to the lan card that is connecting to the switch and alos add static ip adds to all the other computers taht are to be connected for sharing. Then share the internet connection through the other lan card.
