This works great, but we are now adding a 10 meg to MAE-East and would like to soon connect a router to MAE-East++ (the gigaswitch) with a FDDI. Now everybody is saying we need to get a cisco 7000 or 7500 router, but that is what they said before I started using p133's as routers. Is anyone out there using a FDDI card with FreeBSD? If so how do you like it how much data can you put through the link and can you put more then 1 card in say a P133? Nathan Stratton CEO, NetRail, Inc.
