Re: How to prevent broken ethernet port on DS

Quote:
Quote:
1) Buy a decent SWITCH. We bought the Linksys 5-port Switch. Link. Apparently, a HUB will not work.

2) Plug one ethernet cable from the Driver station (Any port) to any port on the SWITCH except the Uplink.

3) Plug the laptop and cRio using a Crossover/Ethernet into any open ports on the SWITCH except the Uplink.
Question: How do you power the Switch when you are on the practice field? Do you wire it into the cRIO with the router? Do you have some other source of power for it?
