	>>Is the DEFTA interface support Fdx mode with the TP model ? Full Duplex FDDI is not dependent on the connector type, so yes, the card (physically) supports it. I believe DEFTA ships with eFDXEnable set to TRUE (enabling FDX operation) however it's possible that it doesn't. If the latter is true, then it depends on the driver as to whether or not it can be enabled. - Larry
