    Hi folks!

    Hope this helps someone:

    Mac Mini 1.5 GHz -> D-Link DE-809TC ancient 10MBit Hub -> DSL -> BAD
    Mac Mini -> D-Link DES-1005D -> DE-809TC -> DSL -> GOOD
    Mac Mini -> Netgear FS105 -> DE-809TC -> DSL -> GOOD

    Conclusion: It seems "just" the 10MBit autonegotiate between MacMini/MorphOS and the ancient 10MBit Hub has issues. Both 100MBIt Hubs work fine, even with the 10 MBit old hub "behind", linking to the DSL router. Reason I still keep the ancient 10MBit hub: Weird cabling between DSL and wall, only the "good olde" hub seems to be able to connect with that mess of cabling.

    So: connecting the Mini with "any" 100MBit hub instead of 10MBit solved the issue... at least for me.

    Any more questions, let me know!!

    I reg'd MOS + it rocks :)
