I'll do that, though. Got a little bit further. Booted Knoppix and ran a thing called mii-tool - Shame it is not available for ECS. root@2[knoppix]# ifconfig eth0 down root@2[knoppix]# ifport eth0 eth0 6 This is interesting as it is only supposed to report a max of 4 according to the man page, but that also says it does not understand all cards. However, see under capabilities below, there are 4 modes - maybe a binary add of modes? root@2[knoppix]# mii-tool -v eth0 eth0: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok product info: AdHoc AH101LF rev 11 basic mode: autonegotiation enabled basic status: autonegotiation complete, link ok capabilities: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD advertising: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD link partner: 100baseTx-FD 100baseTx-HD 10baseT-FD 10baseT-HD flow-control Running a large FTP from another ECS box and my Solaris box gives speeds of between 5.7 and 7 Mbytes/Sec so that would suggest it is working OK. Rebooted ECS and back to a reported 10,000,000 mbs as reported by netstat -n FTP is so slow you can hardly see the numbers change :-) Found you can set the MAC address in PROTOCOL.INI so set that to what it ought to be and tried again. No better but at least other boxes' "arp -a" report the correct MAC address. Seems to me that possibly the driver is not getting the right info out of the card and is screwing up somehow. Can anyone give me pointers to get this working under Genmac please? -- Regards Dave Saville =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <os2-wireless_users@2rosenthals.com>.
