It's supposed to work to connect two GigE adapters with a straight-thru cable. I verified this with two Intel em NICs, quite a while ago. As I recall, when I used a crossover cable, I could not get the adapters to go to 1000, only 100. That might have been the cable, or not. -- Barney Wolff http://www.databus.com/bwresume.pdf I'm available by contract or FT, in the NYC metro area or via the 'Net.Received on Thu Oct 30 2003 - 08:34:22 UTC
