John, Try using an ifconfig of "ifconfig ep0 inet <ip address> aui". I was having what sounds like the same problem until I looked at the code and in one of the comments found that using "aui" at the end of the ifconfig activates the twisted pair port as well. Once I did that, things seem to be working rather well. -Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Paul Parker CIS: CSI:PPARKER or 70004,54 CompuServe Inc.
