BNC worked fine, but god beware you had two points of failure. Impossible to debug, because one error caused the whole line to go down. so you couldn't just check every connection until it worked.

And I still don't want to know how many hours of my life I have wasted, because I thought Windows network explorer wasn't a buggy mess.

"I can ping your PC but don't see it in the network explorer, might be something wrong. time for another round of "how fast can win98 be reinstalled" :D

BNC didn't require a switch or hub though
