Hi,

Thanks for the new driver, Mr Becker.

Today I'm on a 100mb ethernet network instead of 10 but its working
fine on that. It does seem to take quite a while for the second 
beep after inserting the Etherfast card. I'm using it now so I
can't time it. More than 5 seconds though.

Thanks,

Paul Wick
