Can I connect a Netgear DGND3300 10/100 modem/router, via a crossover cable, to either a Gigabyte M61PME-S2 containing an nForce 10/100 chip or an Asrock P67 Extreme4 with Gigabit Ethernet, with the crossover cable working as a patch cable?
I know that with newer chips, auto mdix will kick in and patch cables can be used as crossovers. But I'm not sure of the other way around.
Thanks.
