They'll be lots of problems. Personally I wired up a 10Base-T network over phone-like cat-3 a _years_ ago, but it only barely worked (only worked on some cards, with packet loss). There wasn't a phone line there to interfere, but I can only imagine if there was. I ended up using wireless later when I needed network there again. -- -dave Dave Carlson <dave at math.umn.edu> Systems Administrator School of Mathematics, University of Minnesota http://www.math.umn.edu PGP/GPG Fingerprint: C3D0 9962 1E98 B742 132D 0E1A CE11 7C4B 5309 97A7 (visit http://www.gnupg.org for more information) -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
