For RT-FireWire, currently we supports ohci1394a board, which supports up to 400 Mb/s. For RTnet I think also, the physical speed really only depends on the hardware you use: either 10/100M or Gigebit Ethernet board.
BUT, personally I think the point to develop real-time network software is to get stable, deterministic transaction performance out of the promising characteristics of hardware part, like FireWire, compared with traditional fieldbus, e.g. CAN, profibus. The goal to increase physical speed limit can never be met by software. Best regards, Yuchen ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
