A 16bit ISA card could nearly handle that, but I guess you've installed 100mbit PCI devices, so that shouldn't be a problem. > top - 18:13:25 up 22 days, 11:07, 1 user, load average: 0.11, 0.12, 0.05 Your computer can not only handle the load, it's basically fallen asleep because there's no work to do :-) > be to small to handle the load of our net? I think it isn't but some others > wants a CISCO 3845 (me too ;·) but that isn't the question this time) Since the CPEs don't use their full bandwidth (in which case a 100mbit interface wouldn't be enough), this box can easily handle the current network load.
