Hi.

I am using a 3C905 Ethernet Card in a 100MBit network with 2.1.7 on a 486/133.
The card works Ok, but delivers very low performance ( only about 500kB/sec)
although running in 100MBit mode (according to the hub).
Occasionally the driver gives a message
/kernel: vx0: Strange connector type in EEPROM: 6
/kernel: vx0: assuming AUI

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Guido
