This is a follow-up on my earlier note regarding Codenoll
fiberoptic repeaters.  We had been experiencing high collision rates,
which we attributed to the Codenoll repeaters, and so requested help
from Codenoll. They (Codenoll) responded by sending out an engineer who
helped trace the problem to our ethernet cable.  There was 
a kink in the cable and the terminating load was too close to
the transciever (ie out of ethernet spec).  Once these issues were resolved,
the Codenoll repeaters were put back online and the link came up.
Since then, we had Codenoll come out and get a second link up, and
that too is now performing flawlessly.
