Doesn't sound like your hub is working right. Sounds like it is a 10mb hub not 10/100 with autosense. You should be able to set the nic to 'auto' for speed and it will negociate with the hub for the correct speed. Make sure your straight thur patch cables are cat5 not cat3 or 100mb is not supported
