Recently I took down one of my ethernet switches to try another in its place. I then reinstated it (for reasons not relevant here) Now, quite suddenly, without any changes being made to my network I am having to regularly reset this ethernet switch, which seems to 'hang' every few hours, stopping any network communication for those computers attached to it.
It has worked like a dream for 2 years. Do you think it is just on its way out or can anyone suggest why this might be happening. Its a 3COM 10mbps 24 port switch with a load of workstations, 1 server and a fibre optic converter attached to it. Once restarted the switch works absolutely fine.....for a few hours!
Thanks
