Default Network Crossover cable wiring...

I just thought I'd post this as it'd be useful for those with straight cables they don't mind splicing and rewiring...

If it is very useful then could the mods make it sticky?

Don't know about making it a sticky mate. You can buy a new one for under £3 !!!

Every dbox owner should have PT-1's helpfile on their PC's desktop, thats where you will find everything you need to know about the dbox.

Well, it's just if there are people with an unused straight cable lying about, it saves them money (fuel/bus fare & the cable itself) going out to get one, it's only 4 wires that need swapping and that's it...

It would certainly be a good idea to do this and have spare xover !!
