My opinion on this matter is that the world has "taken a turn" a few years ago, and most everything is moving towards Ethernet based switched communications. At bandwidth uses that are far below maximum, reliability is great and latency is acceptable, at low cost. Many layers (OSI) were written to take care of the nominal unreliability. While network abuse such as transferring large files can quickly use up any bandwidth, the solution to that is to use a different subnet and network adapter (cheap) to talk to the CNC machine, and use the default network adapter to talk to the rest of the world, transferring files, watching youtube etc. i ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
