:Yes, it is half-duplex.

    I think there may be a problem with your hub setup (e.g. exceeding the
    hub count or end-to-end length limitations) that is either resulting
    in packet loss, or the packet burst is locking up the ethernet long
    enough to cause a timeout.  The problem looks very much like an
    unrecognized collision to me. 

    I recommend replacing the hubs with switches.  The whole topology will
    be happier.
