Description:
I am upgrading a network for a small bussiness. We are beginning to take out some of their older macs and putting in new ones. We replaced 2 of their with iMacs and one of them with a G3 300 machine (these are trial upgrades to test performance). They have a managed 24 port Asante hub which has had no problems up until this point. For some reason the iMacs both drop off the network unexpectedly and require re logging. I have tried the iMacs on different ports of the hub, I have double checked the software network settings... Do you know of any specific problem with the iMac network or have any suggestions? I also ruled out the possibility of a card incompatibility with their 10 BT network becasue the same technology is inside of the G3 300 Machine which has had no problems. Any thoughts?
