High Speed WAN w/an NMC
by Timothy C. Bohen 20 Nov '01

20 Nov '01

I have a bunch of High Speed WAN/Ethernet NIC's, the ones normally used for Netservers. Is there any way to make these work with an NMC? Theres a jumper on the NIC that says NMC/NAC and I've tried both and the NMC will try and boot and then just reboot. TIA Timothy C.

Re: [USR-TC] 3com ready to lose massive amounts of ISP's ?
by Clayton Zekelman 20 Nov '01

For what its worth, we have almost 6000 ports of HiperDSP in our network. We have been USRobotics/3Com customers since our inception in 1995. Aside from the occasional board repair, we buy NOTHING from 3Com any more. We don't rely on their support. For the most part, we have relegated our 3Com gear to doing just regular plain vanilla dialup, and use other vendor's equipment to do anything complex. The ONLY bright point in our 3Com experience has been the service we receive from a company in Toronto, IASL (www.iasl.com) At 06:46 PM 20/11/20 01 +0900, Peter Evans wrote: >Ed Taylor (ed(a)1st.net) wrote: > > <snip> > >> Think I am joking? ... continue down this path.

Re: [USR-TC] Gee, wouldn't it be nice to talk to a human at Commworks regardin g a repair

All, This is getting a little out of hand. There is a big difference here between Support, Service and Repair. These questions today have been about Repair of out of Warrantee Product. If you have a Support Contract you enter it in and you are connected to a Tech Support Person. If your Contract is with a Service Channel Affiliate you call them directly. If you have no contract of any type and you need Warrantee work you go to the Web. I will get a document from our Professional Services and post it here. Note: If you have a contract you have received a document on how to access support.

I run a very small business: 3 people. And one of the most important functions is to NOT have a machine answer the phone if at all possible. I personally hate the advent of the voice messaging systems that have proliferated in recent times. There are some uses for it; for example my phone banking for checking account balances and such. But some areas like customer service just should have a human answering the phone. Quoting Thomas_Goodman(a)3com.com: > > > Scott, > > Humans cost money, even the ones that answer the phones.

Scott, Humans cost money, even the ones that answer the phones. Repair work is requested via the Web. Go the Web site stated on the call you made. http://totalservice.3com.com/ Click on Warrantee/Repair http://carrier.cso.mw.3com.com/warranty/warranty.cfm Click on the word here http://carrier.cso.mw.3com.com/warranty/warranty_request.cfm Click on the word here You will see: In order to request warranty or repair service, you must have a current TOTALService account. If you have a TOTALService account, please login now. If you do not have a TOTALService account, please click here to create one. There is no charge to create a TOTALService account. Note No Charge to create an Account. http://carrier.cso.mw.3com.com/warranty/warranty_register.cfm Fill out the form In the comments section you can ask for the cost of out of Warrantee work on your issue.

My apologies for the spam that hit the list. I thought I had restricted posting to list members only, but apparently I hadn't. It is turned on now. In addition, nobody but myself can view the subscriber list.

Hi There! AfricanWood is a TOTALLY Natural and unprocessed VIAGRA alternative that actually WORKS!!! $19.95 for six uses!!! Make People Happy! Make MONEY! Become an exclusive distributor!!!! For thousands of years, native Africans have been eating what an african friend of mine called a "bean," to achieve the same results that a person gets from Viagra! (Note that the guys who live in W. Africa where they are popular carry them around in their pockets on a daily basis to handle the needs of multiple wives!) These are actually the nuts of a flowering tree native to a small west African country. We have a particularly potent variety. One nut will give you SIX uses! We have many satisfied customers! - Promotes your sex drive - maintains a longer erections - heightens sensitivity - improves circulation Best of all, they don't have the side effects of the prescription drugs. And since its a nut, and there's no processing whatsoever, you are getting exactly what nature calls for. NEW! DISTRIBUTORSHIPS AVAILABLE! We would like to announce new DISTRIBUTORSHIPS that are now available after numerous requests by customers interested in selling the product themselves. This is a completely new program, designed to allow you to make extra money by selling product, and so that satisfy the growing demand for this remarkable product. There are two types of distributorships available: Basic Distributorship -$50 startup fee - Provides you with 10% off every order you place, and includes two "3 Paks" of product. Master Distributorship -$199 startup fee - Provides you with 20% off every order you place, and includes 2 "3 Paks", one "6 Pak" and one "10 Pak" of product. I have included a form below so that you can become a distributor, OR YOU CAN JUST BUY THE PRODUCT!! IT REALLY WORKS!! Sign up to be a "Basic" distributor and buy all of your future product at 10% off. Buy a "Master" distributorship and get 20% off all future product! Then SELL as much as you want! Make THOUSANDS in your SPARE TIME! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you would like to send in your order, please send the form below to our offices, and make checks/money orders payable to "S.S.S" Once you are a distributor, we are also working on a way for you to sign up other distributors who may work for you. You will make money off of each sale that your own distributors make. NOTE THAT BY COMING IN AT THIS LEVEL, YOU ARE REPORTING DIRECTLY TO CORPORATE, MEANING THAT YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET IN AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE PROGRAM.
