Are there any multiport nic cards that are known to work well under QNX 6.X.
We have tried the Phobos QuadPort, which uses the tulip driver, but
auto-detection of ports does not work (nor does manual speed setting).

Thanks,

The problem with most multi-port ethernet adapters is that they only
have one EEPROM for all the ports on the adapter. This requires a special
driver for that particular adapter, which we don’t have.
