In this business a descriptive text name like that is not very accurate, I have no idea what model this is. The official name for the SMC9332 is ``EtherPower 10/100 Fast Ethernet PCI Adapter''. I do not know of _ANY_ EtherLink class cards that can do 100Mbs, all the 100Mbs cards are called EtherPower. -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Reliable computers for FreeBSD
