hello

my nic goes to sleep too often.. --;
i can't download a file bigger than 3megs..
this is annoying...

my nic seems to be either intel 82555 or 82557 based one.
(even though i don't know what that means.. --; )

anyway,
i 'm home user, using cable..
so i guess
options eepro100 options=0x30
won't wokr for me, (and i tried)

i 'm even thinking about buying new nic for my laptop box --;

any suggestion?

thank you
Eugene Kim

Hi

You may use e100 driver from Intel.
Some distribution (say, RedHat) include e100 and eepro100. But installer select eepro100 as default.
In that case, you may find the driver under your /lib/modules/kernel-version/network.
Once you confirm the driver is in the directory, you may want to try the driver.
If you think it works, edit /etc/modules.conf.

If you can not find the driver in your distribution, you may download the source from Intel's web site.

Good luck.
