I double checked my cable catalogs as was suggested and indeed RG 62 A/U is not 48 ohms but ninety something ohms, so I will go out and buy some real "thin ethernet" cable spected at 50 ohms. I did not even want to try the RG 62 A/U after some of the warnings that were sent to me. -- ___ ___ ___ Steve Good ...uunet!ccicpg!cci632!ritcsh!steveg |@/o o\@| @/- -\@ @/o o\@ Network Administrator BITNET%"SNGDCO@RITVAXD" | \ o / | / o \ \/-\/ Rochester Institute of Technology (716)475-2702 \ --- / | --- | /---\ "I hear nothing, I see nothing, I say nothing" Shultz
