thats the thing.... see crossover cable are used to DIRECTLY connect two devises, may it be two computers, xboxs whatever. if you want to connect more than 2, you have to use a router, switch, or hubb, and use cat5 cables. not crossover cables.
 
yea or just walmart... i hve a tiger direct outlet store like 5 min away from me and i love it... i visit every weekend, i love that place... and they only have like 5 actuall stores throughout the nation..
 
I made my own crossover cable and it worked fine, I guess it is that they only work some of the time. And make sure that it's not just a straight through that you think is a crossover.
