Hi:
This may not be the best place to talk about this, but anyway
. . . on my home network I experiance massive amounts of collisons, but
only when talking to my main workstation box. This box has a 3Com 905C in
it. Although transfers seem to be fast and error free, everytime I look
at 'ifconfig' my collisions are through the roof (my hub's collision
light stays lit when doing heavy transfers too). Currently 'ifconfig'
gives the output of 528,733 collisions, since the box was turned on 17
days ago . . .
It seems I have tried everything: different hubs, shorter
(uncoiled) cat5 cables, and even 3Com's own kernel module, but no
go. When calling 3Com they act there is no problem with this many
collisons (although they think it is quite odd that it is happening).
Thanks for any help.
