Have a client that has just had a T1 installed. They are running NT Server4 SP6a, MS Proxy 2.0 SP1. The T1 Line has a Cisco Router and an 8 port Cisco Mini Hub 10/100. The client's LAN uses a Netgear 16 port Hub 10/100. The server has dual NICs. How do I connect the Server to the T1 line? With a crossover cable? PAtch cable? I can ping the LAN's internal IP's, but nothing outside . . . HELP !

crossover for HUB/SWITCH to HUB/SWITCH
straight-through for PC to HUB/SWITCH

or if you have an uplink port you set only one side HUB-port to 'uplink' and use a straight-cable for HUB to HUB.

If you have further network question we're in need of a diagram or else (detailed description) that shows, where your problem might be

This would have probably have been better posted in the Networking fourm.

YOu should connect the router to the cisco switch - use the uplink port, set on port to uplink, or use a crossover cable, then when connected you should be able to see the world.

However you will need to set up a firewall between your router and LAN.
