I have my Empeg plugged directly into a switch, here at the office. I shunted the specific port down from 100 to 10Mb, and left the other settings on autodetect. According to 3Com's handy switch info tools, Empeg, while having large packets, only uses a paltry 40% of the bandwidth. On top of that, the onboard port is set to half duplex.
Does anyone know a way to change the port to full duplex? This would nearly double the transfer rate to the Empeg, effectively cutting sync time in half. Is it hard wired to half duplex???
