390.0. "DECrepeater 90FA, FOIRL and 10baseF" by KERNEL::HOGGAND () Thu Sep 16 1993 10:56

    Does the DECrepeater 90FA automatically switch between 10baseF and
    FOIRL depending on what it senses at the other end of the link.
    
    For example, I have a situation where two 90FA's will talk happily, but
    replacing one with a LANbridge 150 causes the connection to fail.
    
    Any ideas?
    
    Dave.

Yes.

The LB150 does not speak FOIRL or 10baseFL, it uses a DEC propriatary signaling
list the LB100, so you cannot use a LB150 with a DR90FA
