Right now I am using a 3c905-TX right now but I am having some odd file transfer troubles. I can only seem to get transfer rates of about 6.5k sec across an ethernet. I think that this is curable. I think that the OS just has to know what transfer rate to use. I notice now that the collision light on the hub is nearly steady when a transfer is taking place. --ja
