Sounds cool. Can you test one thing though? Connect the 815EFV ethernet to
a 10 Mbps hub and see if it works OK for some longer period of time (one
hour or more). I had a bad case of lockups with 815EEA2 and 815EFV2 when
connected to 10 Mbps only equipment, so I had to add a second NE2000
compatible card in such cases... :/
