Subject: Ascend max problem router hangs

It looks like there is a problem with Ascend routers that they 
stop transmitting data at certain points in time. As a fix (as noted in 
some other user-group email) id to ping every 30 secs across the router 
to the connected pc's. This is a workaround 
but files can now be transmitted 100 % 
I have sent info to ascend but apparnetly others have too.
Ascend haven't been able to find the problem.
