Hi. We have a Pentium Pro 200 with two Ethernet boards. On one We are hooked to the Internet and in the second one We have a Hub with 10 PC's connected. As We understand the bandwith in the second board is of 10 Mbs. and We would like to deliver 64k instead. Somebody told us that We could do this by modifiyng the source code of the driver involved (EPI) and recompiling the Kernel. First Is these the correct way to attend the above requirement? Second. Isn't the solution risky and resource consuming (memory, swapping, HD, performance, etc) ? Third Could you suggest to us what to do or how can We solve this problem? We appreciate your response, Thank you..
