- GENERAL
- INFORMATION: According to a customer some 16Mbit Token-Ring boards have
- problems on rings with over 100 users (see Infoworld Aug 27
- pg 34). The Compaq board may have this problem. On a ring
- with 125 users, he replaced the Compaq Token-Ring boards
- with IBM boards and it has been up for 4 days now. It would
- previously go down two to three times daily.
-
- This has to do with the early revisions of the chip set that
- came from Texas Instruments. Contact Compaq for more
- information.
