Hi all, Further to this problem. I downloaded a diag. tool (originally designed for Linux). Ran it and came up with the following report: =======================8<============================= vpn# ./eepro -p ec00 -t 0 -e eepro100-diag.c:v2.05 6/13/2001 Donald Becker (becker@scyld.com) http://www.scyld.com/diag/index.html Assuming a Intel i82557/8/9 EtherExpressPro100 adapter at 0xec00. Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100 EEPROM contents: Station address 00:A0:C9:90:18:C6. Receiver lock-up bug exists. (The driver work-around *is* implemented.) Board assembly 668081-004, Physical connectors present: RJ45 Primary interface chip i82555 PHY #1. ==========================>8========================== I'm not quite sure what this means! It mentions something about a receiver lock-up bug??? Does anyone have any knowledge of this bug and if 4.3S has the work around.
