100Mbit ISDN solution

Hey guys. Ran into a problem the other day. A customer of mine has a
100Mbit network, with 100Mbit hubs. They want ISDN access, so they hook a
Pipeline 50 to their hub, dial it up, connect to the internet. But, hey
nothing on the network can see it. Doh! I didnt think about the little
10Mbit into 100Mbit hub problem. I called Ascend and they said they do not
have a router than can do 100Mbit yet, does anyone here know of an ISDN
router that will support 100Mbit, or some kind of AUI transceiver that may
go 10 to 100? Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks
Luke

I'm using this at home. List is $429, discounted is about $360. Has 8
10/100 autosensing ports, perfect for interconnnecting.

*&^%$!!!!!!

All my devices are 100BaseT, so I can't confirm that it works with
10baseT.

I'll try and find a 10BaseT device, and report back.

Sorry!

Well, Looks like J3234A + J3247A about $1,200 total will give you what
you want. My setup insists on talking 1000BaseT only. The $1,200 is
still less than a Switch tho'.

I have one of the Bay NetGear switches here at home going between a
Catalyst 10Mb switch and a Bay 100Mb hub. It works really well and even
talks FullDuplex 10Mb :slight_smile:

Common problem. USR doesn't do it either. Get a small 10/100 switch that's
per port switchable. Then you can hook up a few other things that may only
do 10 Mbps. This will probably be an even bigger problem over the next few
years at least with giga coming out.
