Re: (ASCEND) Can't ping Max 6K

Thanks, Eric, it worked. Saved by the list...again ;-)

Note to Ascend: It would have saved me a lot of time if there were a note
about this cable in the getting started volume in the "testing the ethernet"
section. After everything else failed, I did go back and read the
directions, but I didn't find anything about the parity checking dongle.
