Just a thought, mabe you should use a couple of ISA NICs, though you may be limited to 10Mbit and not 100Mbit, not to mention the overhead WRT handling ISA interrupts vs PCI... > (Little side question...

Yes, you are limited to EV5 only (not EV56), and the fastest put in there was 333MHz (I had a 266MHz that I recently upgraded to a 333MHZ one which was just lying around :-). You need the CPU and an oscillator of the appropriate frequency. Prolly isn't worth the hassle, unless it's free, as I didn't notice much improvement... ;-} --Jay++ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jay A Estabrook HPTC - LINUX support Hewlett-Packard Company - MRO1-2/K15 (508) 467-2080 200 Forest Street, Marlboro MA 01752 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
