Same effect, if all five are plugged in we get booted. We used to get booted before but very rarely.

Only four are actually run through the hub. Rayne's is missing the driver for her LAN card so she is hooked directly to the modem through usb.

@Neverending: All cables are new, the ports are good as well.

Call a tech and ask for a replacement hub. Maybe this one cant handle 5.

Actually I was thinking about borrowing an old on from work to see if there was any difference.

I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but as soon as we put in the 5th one, the first and 5th wouldn't stay online at the same time. Both of those are Acers, the others are not.

After he changed the IP of the 5th one, all 5 comps were online, but then we ran into the problem of all of them losing connection at the same time, about every hour or so. They stay off for about 5 minutes, then all come back on again.

If someone is on for a while without cutting off, as soon as someone else starts surfing on another comp, they all cut out. If used one at a time, they stay on.

Do it. I am pretty sure that might solve the problem.

Thanks ___V___, Despare and Neverending. We'll let you know what happens :)
