Even I think this is there at the commonly asked topic Sticky ??

What if I have a straight cable, is there any other way ( no HUB)
are we provided with straight cable or crossed one with MTNL connection.
This is my friends problem not mine, so I dont have enough knowledge about his comp, OS neither I have the MTNL connection at home.

MTNL must have provided straight cable.

With straight cable you need to use either HUB or Switch.Other option is climp the one side of cable again.Go to any shop...they will climp one side of cable again..and make the cable cross.They will hardly charge 10/- or may be free.

I have got the soln please lock his thread.
