This should let you break out on to a thick-wire network. >Will this work with thin-wire, or do I need a repeater? No, you do not need a repeater. Yes it will work with thin-wire. I currently have a DELNI set up exactly that way. I have a DESTA (thin-wire transceiver) connected to this last port and I have not had any troubles with it. >Does anyone know why my whole damn network crashes every time I throw the >switch on the DELNI which enables the external port? Without knowing the topology of you network, I can't answer this. Are you sure you are not mixing heart beat with no-heart beat? > >Thanks. > >David Shoat --- W.
