[comp.sys.novell] Thomas-Conrad Arcnet & Downtime problems

noyce@incstar.uucp (02/04/91)

I have been experiencing problems with keeping our network 'up' - 
Currently, if one PC or connection goes bad, the entire network goes
down.  We are running Novell 2.15 on a PS/2 80, with 2 ArcNet cards.
The network is a combined buss & star topology.  We have several 
active hubs.  We are using Thomas-Conrad hardware in all of the
PCs, with Twisted-pair cable (Standard RJ-11 plugs),.

I am trying to figure out what the best way would be to minimize the
amount of PCs going down.  Anyone who has experience with this, 
please E-MAIL a response.  

Thanks in advanc.
