Re: Hub status data - understanding network log messages

Andrew thank you for posting this great knowledge article, it's really helped me to drill into an issue my household has been experiencing. I have a small quibble with the term "analogue" technology. It's not an inherently analogue issue, whether the data is encoded digitally or in analogue style it's an issue with the nature of the physical media that is used for transmission and reception of data. Also a point to point passive fibre connection IIRC has 1x10^14 less errors but it too will have occasional errors when you add in repeaters, multiplexers, and concentrators.
