Yes, good old PR 10570. I too am effected by it. I would upgrade the box to 3.3 however, I have no official drivers for my etinc T1 card. Can you not just upgrade your box to 3.3 ? I did this for my other border router which has only ethernet. It of course is humming along no problem. If you make the modification, please share your results. ---Mike Mike Tancsa (mdtancsa@sentex.net) Sentex Communications Corp, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada "Given enough time, 100 monkeys on 100 routers could setup a national IP network."
