A friend of mine (donal@brewich.com) had bought one of SIIGs 4 port cards and we could never get the darn thing to work properly. No matter what we did, never could get it above 57600 with out it barfing on us:( Plus, we could never get more than 2 ports to work either. This is with 16550 UARTs. We have since went to UseNet II serial boards.
