So, because you THINK two ports is the default, then it is even when you can't post a single thing to back it up? Keep in mind, I researched this and posted how I did it. That research does NOT support what you THINK. The sooner you realize that just because you think something is the default doesn't make it so, the better for you it will be. As I also pointed out, I'm not the only one who says you are wrong. To this point, no one else has posted to support your claim either. To put it bluntly, two ports is NOT the default and never has been either. Based on the research I did, it isn't even going to be the default anytime soon. You are wrong, period. Until you can post a fact that backs up your claim, you are wrong. I've said it, others have said it and yet you are still posting something as fact even when proven to be wrong. Whether you call it a bubble or call it cow crap, you are not posting facts or even a informed opinion. I call it BS. Let me know when you can post some facts to back up your claim. Dale :-) :-)
