Re: 2838 PCI 100/10 Mbps Ethernet IOA and V5R2M0

Works fine on my 270 at V5R2.  Don't worry about it.  I think they are
trying to say they have cards that can perform better ie the 2849, but
it doesn't say the 2838 will not work.

We wan't to upgrade our Model 170 from V4R5M0 to V5R2M0

IBM webserver say's:
Although the following I/O features are supported on V5R2, they may
experience performance limitations.
In unusual and severe cases replacement with an alternative feature may
be required.

We have 2838 in our as/400.

Our reseller say's:
You can not run 2849 in your Model 170 and there are only 2838 to this
Model of as/400.

Any sugestion for our problem ?
Yes we now upgrade to a newer model ..... but any other sugestion ?

Ps: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
