My computer network hiccups like, all the time, every 5 minutes or so (I don't know the precise time intervals inbetween hiccups, but it occurs often enough to drive me insane)
The network setup is as follows:
We're both using Windows XP professional, I have Sp2, the upstairs has SP1. I don't know if that'd have anything to do with it, but this issue has existed long before we had either service pack.

I'm off to bed now, but your answer should help other people troubleshoot.
Buy a cheapo Linksys mini-switch, if at all possible. If you actually have a "hub", then I cry. 10Mbps = sadf
If you just said hub out of habit and meant switch, then I'm less sad. Still, it could be a fault in the hub/switch

Point me towards these wild Linksys mini-switch things.

And while you're at it, replace your network cards with Linksys too..
Easier to get help when your network is all one brand.

No need to switch cables, just chop one end of it, and recrimp it as a crossover.. just swap locations of the orange and brown wires..or is it orange and green?
I doubt he has a crimper handy but..
I would just buy a new switch.. the one Kegwen or whoever he is now suggested is a good one. I just bought one myself for about 20 bucks at radioshack and it works wonders.
