@soundcheck: yep, I certainly know what you are talking about. That's why my special ethernet cable design also inhibits most of these "nasty groundloops" , "reflections" and "radiated noises". They are of course all known to degrade the digital data transmission and even (quite magically) manage to generate a frame check sequence (32 bit CRC) that matches the modified package data! So don't worry - the problem is already addressed properly!
