You should direct tech support questions about the Emerging Technologies gear to ET first since they write & maintain the driver. > This device provides a number of physical interfaces (eg RS232, V25) > to a Frame Relay, X25, or PPP network using "variants" of HDLC as the > link level protocol (LAPD, LAPB, etc). What interface are you using to connect it to the DSU? V.35 or RS-232? As an aside -- if you're doing 56k FR then buy an Adtran DSU5600 instead and save $600. The DSU5600 speaks RS232 directly and spits out PPP, which you can drop into the PPP application of your choice. Obviously if you're doing better than 56kbps then the ET is a necessity.
