JEES.....you have been given a load of crap advise......!!!!!!
FIRST lets start at the begininng .....you have 5 pc`s which are connected
to your switch .....they , i take it are 100 meg cards ...make sure they are
in HALF DUPLEX....(send and recieve on the same cable) NOT... FULL DUPLEX
(send and recieve on TWO different CABLES)
(THE WAY YOU GET 20/200 MEG IS YOU TRUNK (2 THATS 2) CABLES TOGETHER USING
TWO PORTS....... ANYONE TELLS YOU OTHER WISE IS A FOOL)in my experience you
should make sure the pc cards are set to this ...
SECOND...are you connecting to your main link at 100 meg.... if your using
cat 5 cabling and the main router is more than 10 meters away IR-REGARDLES
of what the switch says ...you wont be getting it...
THIRD...FORGET about spanning tree, trunking and all that crap ...START at
the beginning (I`M NO CCIE BUT I HAVE BEEN ROUND LONG ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT
YOU DON`T THROW THE CAR AWAY WHEN A CAM BELT GOES)

>Dear friends,

>I have a few questions to ask:
>
>1) Our company Network are running at 100M speed. Now if I connect a 10M
>speed 3com hub to one of the ports in cisco 2900 switches (100M speed) in
>the company network, and I connect 5 pc to the 3com hub, so, the network
>speed of PC is 10M divided by 5= 2M each or 10M each?
>
>2) As the users complain about the speed, my boss asked me to use the brand
>new 2900 switch (100M speed) to replace the 3com hub. So I connect 2900
>switch to 2900 switch that in company network, and connect 5 Pcs to the
>2900
>switch, so the speed of PC should be 100M each or 100M devided by 5= 20M?
>
>3) But user still complain about the speed, I use the ftp function to check
>the speed and found the speed is only 150kb/sec= 0.15M only. I suspect
>because the switches that I used is a brand new switch, I havent configure
>VLAN and spanning tree protocol on the new switch to block to packet
>broadcase, so the speed is slow. If this is the case, can I consult you,
>how
>to configure VLAN and spanning tree on the new switches? Can anyone teach
>me? I ever seen the configuration file of a VLAN switches, but I don't know
>what command should I type to configure VLAN on 2900 switch. What is the
