The performance is about 60 Mbps; its I/O keeps same when it runs with four disk I/O (17 MBps = 136 Mbps) simultaneously. I am trying to get Zeitnet to give full technical support on FreeBSD. If it would not be successful, the installation is not hard. PVC, SVC (UNI), signaling are all supported in the driver. The installation script will ask you one or two questions: (1) ATM IP address; (2) corresponding hostname if it is not found in your hosts table and all DNS. If you use PVC, after installation done, you may modify the database file, /etc/zninit.db, to add PVC entries. There is one example entry in this file, and you can follow it. -Jin
