That's what it was. For some reason, the new system doesn't like the hub and moving the connection to a switch, and 
using port mirroring is working.
If it didn't have any connectivity at all, could it have been a speed mismatch?

  Are you sure you want tu run all traffic through a hub? This might lead to
  packetloss due to colissions.

  It's a temporary setup so that we can get a number of services going right.
  So far, we don't see any packet loss or terrible quality loss and we're even
  passing voip calls through the setup.
  We were using a switch with port monitoring but because we had multiple
  devices which needed to monitor the traffic, we ended up using a hub for
  now.
The setup I'm talking about is... WAN-Routers----Hub----Firewall----switches----etc The wireshark and other monitoring systems are connected to the Hub. ___________________________________________________________________________
