Can someone please explain what the console message

LANCE has lost TXON63

means? This is being repeated approx. 100 times a day at our site.
Is it a hardware problem with the Lance chip, or is it a software
problem, or because of mistakes in installing ethernet?.

We have a RISC 3240 (upgraded M120/5), thin wire ethernet and a 3COM
 transceiver  box, and are running an earlier version of the RISC/OS 
(4.30 or 4.10 -- I forget which).

Desperate,
