One caveat: When I set it up, I wanted to force the AS/400 to run in 100 MBPS, full duplex mode, and tried setting the Ethernet line that way. It didn't work: it went into half duplex mode. When I set it to do autonegotiation, everything was fine. Perhaps this is the source of your "plug it into a hub" issue: either the switch you were using wasn't negotiating properly, or else the AS/400 wasn't doing the Right Thing?
