Cabling Length | If you use longer cables than are needed, transmission quality may be |
| affected. |
| The network cables should not be longer than the limit of 100 meters. |
Too many hubs | Too many hubs (or repeaters) between the connected computers in |

A loop in the data | A data path loop forms when there is more than one path or route |
path | between two networked computers. This results in broadcast storms |
| that will severely affect your network performance. Make sure there |
| are no loops in your network topology. |
