Hey all;

Hardware: Compaq Proliant ML370G2 with 2 x NC6136 Fibre NICs.

We used to have issues with the original Compaq drivers when there was
heavy traffic on these NICs.  The connection would just drop.  To
resolve the issue, we installed the Intel drivers for the Pro1000
family.

Yesterday we updated to the latest Compaq set of drivers for the NC6136
NICs.

We ran around 500GB of data through the lines without incident.

The Compaq driver version is 3.63.363.0.

I've noticed that there are a few folks out there who have experienced
similar situations as we did so I wanted to share the latest
information.

Cheers,

Carter Fowler
