<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I think it was the linksys card that gave me that
problem. hm.... I wound up using the old_tulip driver for some such
network card or another. The tulip driver had a problem staying connected to the
hub, I would have to reset everything to get it to re-connect. By chance I
tried the old_tulip module and everything is working great!</FONT></DIV>

Re-setting cable modem to fix it sounds like modem problem. Or its

think it is a linux problem. I notice a lot of colisions on my hub when I am
in Linux on my laptop. Never had that be=fore I upgraded to RH7.1. My eth0
also fails upon bootup, looks like it is trying to initialize before
cardservices, but when I get into the gui, I can access the internet. I only
have the problem downloading large files, anything that takes up a lot of
bandwidth. Like I said, I get a lot of collisions on the hub, and I dont get
this when I am on the same machine in windows. I have a 10/100 + 56K
Linksys card, and am using pcnet_cs module for it as recommended on Linksys
"Limited" Linux support page. I was wondering, if for some reason linux was
running the card as a 100 tx instead of 10 tx would that cause a problem? I
only have a 10meg hub currently. <BR> </BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
