Given that there are still some ports around that care, alas, an addendum
to my previous comments: 

For the sake of your future sanity, color-code.  You can usually get some
choice of cable colors if you shop around a bit.  Buy crossover cables
only in orange or red (e.g., Above All Electronics, Bloor a block west of
Bathurst, has them in orange).  Never ever buy straight-through cables in
either of those colors.
