I have a cable modem and a router. I decided to get a switch so that I can use one of my computers to host a webserver and for small game servers for friends and I. I plugged everything in and it should have worked. I connected the cable modem to the switch and then the switch to the router. The computers hooked up through the router work fine, but the one directly into the switch won't work. I am using windows xp pro on all of the computers. Any ideas? Never did this before, but I was told to just plug it in and it would just work.
