RE: Re: London Meet and DDAR Drop

["Phil Harris" <phillip.harris1@xxxxxxx>]

I tried substituting an 8 port 10Mbit hub (that I have tossed in the back
of
the cupboard as a "spare spare") rather than my usual 10/100
switch as the
switch does the buffering between the 100Mbit network card in the server
and
the 10Mbit DDARS. Using the hub forces the network card on the server down
to 10Mbits - both seem fine.
