NTBK69 - ELNK input errors

[absinthium]

Hi all,

Has anybody had any luck with these new transceiver modules manufactured by Mertek?

I am getting increasing input error counts with no collisions on my elnk stat.

>ld 137
CIOD000
.stat elnk

ELNK ENABLED
Ethernet (qu unit number 0):
Host: PBX_ELAN
Internet address: 172.17.30.244
Ethernet address: 00:00:75:45:ce:07
Netmask: 0xffff0000; Subnetmask: 0xfffffff8
165 packets received; 165 packets sent
225 input errors; 0 output errors
0 collisions

I am on 11c Rls 23.35.

When I ping it I get maybe 40-50% success rate. It is connected to a Cisco switch and I have played with both setting the port to auto and also hard-setting it to 10/half with no luck.

I have got dipswitch 3 on the NTBK69 up, making it half duplex.

This switch was previously default IP settings which I have subsequently changed, do I need to INI?

Would like to hear what other have found of these new transceiver/cable assemblies.

Thanks

what would i do to to cross connect transceiver directly to your laptop.. if this has problem, then you might have a faulty transceiver

I did actually have a problem plugging directly into my laptop. When I plug in directly, I get no link lights at all. Regardless of the cable (x-over/straight)
I thought nothing of it as I would get a link light when I plug into a switch.

The friggin tranny is new and it would be awesome if it was proven to be at fault.......
