CRC Errors

Hello

I keep getting CRC errors when the Embedded NetFlex3 is connected to a 3COM SuperStack3 3300. Both ends of the link are set to 100MB Full Duplex, but 1 in every 10 packets suffers from a CRC error. I have tried changing cables, all with no difference.

If the NIC is set to AutoNegotiate, it configures itself to 100 Half Duplex with the switch following suit. If the NIC is set to 100 Full Duplex and the switch to AutoNegotiate, the connections shows as 100 Half Duplex. All with CRC errors.

The CRC errors are on the NIC mainly, with only ocassional errors showing on the switch. I know Intel NIC's have a problem negotiating with 3COM switches, but I have no resolution to this current problem, does anyone else?

Re: CRC Errors

I have also had problems with the netflex and a 3-com auto-sensing 10/100 HUB. My solution was to buy a 3com NIC and everything works fine.
