Hello All,

RE: Installing a 100Mb LAN card in a 979

The 100BT PCI card came bundled in FOS for  PCI based systems at 7.0 and
7.5.   This includes A-Class and N-Class systems.

The 100BT NIO card is not included in FOS for any release.  It is a separate
purchase product.

Regards,

I went back to look at my old communicators it appears the 100Mbit PCI
card support first came bundled with 7.0.
