I have used the Boca ATIO66 (6 port) cards with incredible success. Based on the cards I've seen, you can get 2 6 port cards per machine in shared interrupt mode. I've also used the Digiboard 16/Xe's with considerable success using the dgb driver in 2.1 with some work (ie - working out the debugging comments, etc). I've considered seeing if the included interrupt code works at all, but have put it off due to a lack of time. For clarification sake, I've used the Boca's for PPP/SLIP, and async connections. The Digiboards I've used only for async termina sessions, but I suspect throughput for other applications should be reasonable. -Brian
