It's already installed, but the problem is that i can't even make the pcs to answer PING, my local IP is 192.168.200.1 and when i ping myself it replies but when i try 192.168.200.2 no reply is seen, i tried coasxial RG-58 cable using it directly with no terminators at the ends and it didn't work, so i'm trying with RJ-45 cable to see how it goes.
