Hi,
Thanks for your info and help, 
I suggested my customer to change the hardware to be sure of the full-duplex operation.

Bye

Marco

Yes, I have seen that -- AUI *CAN* run full duplex, but not all NICs seem to support it. It's been a looong time since I played with AUI too (back in the days of 56k DDS lines, FDDI and HSSI! haha).

If I remember correctly, we were successful running full duplex from a 3com NIC through an Allied Telesyn 10base-T transceiver. You can only run full duplex with 10base-T (or 10base-FL), 10base-2 and 10base-5 can't run full duplex since the physical media won't support it.

That was probably 10+ years ago now. I haven't even had any devices around with AUI ports (except a few 2500's that are CPE) for years. Sounds like you have some old piece of gear that you need to resurrect.
