It works fine except that it hangs occasionally (can be :reset by power-cycling). So we don't buy them any more. Also :at my pre-previous employer we had small 8-port 10Mpbs hubs from :D-Link and they had the same problem, so it seems to be a family :problem. With about 20 hubs there was a hang approximately every :other day. : :-SB Oh joy. Well, we'll see what happens with this one. I had a Sohoware superflex 10/100 hub and it hung nearly every day. I'm also testing out a linksys switch (I bought a D-Link switch and a LinkSys switch). Unfortunately the NIC cards that came with the LinkSys switch, as far as I can tell, are no longer supported in -current. -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
