I donīt think that there is the same Problem ! - because this Problem is not only at Starspeeder - bevore 1 Year i have used the same Card unter WINDOWS2000 with UB-COM - there the Data-Applikation also crashes down sometimes...

A Friend of me have used this at the same time with LINUX - without any problems.

If anybody know how to connect to Starspeeder at the LINUX BOX and forward (Masquarade) this connection to the internal NETWORK - Please answer to this E-Mail !!

Best Thanks.
