However......... On an Addtron non managed switch, I dont see anywhere near the same consistent results... Same thing with an SMC Tiger Switch, but not as bad with the Addtron. Its even worse if the network encounters any errors due to a bad cable with the Addtron. Try a cross over cable between the two units. Also, make sure that the duplex setting on both machines agree. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
