Some recommended questions for a difficult case like this: Is the line at 100 or 1000 mbit? Are both ethernet ends set to autodetect speed/duplex? What brand of cable? Is it shielded?

Although note that RcvFifoNoBuf I believe is not a cable error but a too-much-traffic error, which would suggest that it's being maxed out vs the radio link. Outdiscards I believe also not a cable error, but I don't know On Thu, Nov 8, 2018 at 10:47 AM Sam Lambie wrote: > Guys, > > I have a back

Chuck, We do almost all drops with an older case Maxi-Sneaker. Ours has the trencher and roto-bore attachment for crossing driveways so it's quite versatile. Running a drop can take us from 15 mintues to several hours depending on distance and complexity. The maxi-sneaker is a good fit for FTTH in
