29.04.2013: Update for X-Surf networking card

The X-Surf networking card has been sold out for a few years now, but it got back into focus for many users with the release of the new TCP/IP stack "Roadshow". Although Roadshow lacks a graphical user interface and thus does not offer any comfort in setting up a network, the performance is stunning: In certain cases it's more than three times faster than AmiTCP or Miami, and for the first time now, the 10MBit limit of the X-Surf card could be saturated.

This has triggered bugs - not just in the X-Surf, but also in equipment that is connected to the card: When the X-Surf had to handle a defective packet, the computer would freeze sometimes. This bug has been fixed in version V1.3 of the x-surf.device.

Although official support for the X-Surf has ended years ago, we will answer support tickets for this card in the next few weeks for a limited time.

Indeed, thank you, Jens.

Now, to the site admins: will this news post be the new norm?  Because if so, then perhaps I should just leave AO and start reading EAB?  IMO, news releases should be full and complete, not "Go to x-website for this news."  At the very least, it should have been a combination of danbeaver's and Crumb's posts.

LoadWB,

OK, I agree, you are right. Just go to the original news site for the News. I will cease posting news on this site.
