Re: DL140 G3 Broadcom NIC Teaming?

I'm sure that they are the Broadcom 5721 NIC's and I downloaded the latest driver for them from the Broadcom site (couldn't find them on the HP site).

I'll try the download that you've suggested and let you know how I get on.

Thanks for your help

Re: DL140 G3 Broadcom NIC Teaming?

I've just looked at the Google URL you posted and it just goes around in a big circle and I end up back at the HP page that I originally started at (the one where you enter the Server Name and it comes up with all the drivers, except the one I'm looking for)!

I think we'll have to call this a lost cause and I'll look at using the Windows NLB feature instead.

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

Re: DL140 G3 Broadcom NIC Teaming?

hi

maybe you already fixed your issue R S Burnell

but just to let you know I had the chance to test BACS and worked for me fine
you only need .net framework 2.0 so BACS will work great

check attached file

Broadcom Advanced Control Suite (BACS) - NIC teaming 5721
