I have a 918/LX that I believe is experiencing some sort of network
problem.  The symptoms are these:

Unresponsive network logins via NS/VT.

Very slow response for online applications running on terminal
emulation programs connected to HP3000 via network.

Very intermittent (1 every 2-3 secs) collision lights on network
port connected to HP3000 and not visible on any other ports.

(18/LX NIC card Nic/Net confidence light flashing amber very
intermittently (also 1-3 sec. apart).

Console terminal, having a direct serial interface, does not appear
to have any response problems when running system management
programs.


Is this possibly a hardware fault?  Is there a place that I can look
to see if it is or not.

As the matter is urgent the favour of a directly copy of any reply
is requested.

Sincerely,


--
