Thanks for the info. That's a new one. Configuring auto negotiation actually fixed the problem! ;-) Priscilla At 04:51 PM 5/16/01, Keith Woodworth wrote: >On Wed, 16 May 2001, Priscilla Oppenheimer wrote: > >|+On the bright side, your reliability is still 255/255, which makes sense >|+since o

On the bright side, your reliability is still 255/255, which makes sense since only 597 out of 530182 frames have an input error. The ratio of bad frames to good frames is 0.001, which is OK. The port has received 231,187,726 bytes or 1,849,501,808 bits. We have to assume that each frame has j
