All the switches I'm currently playing with are unmanaged dumb things, but I suspect the person was suggesting fiddling the STP settings. Full STP can take some time to settle, as it checks for network loops. So most switches provide some sort of fast STP mode where the switch assumes there's just a single host. I don't think this is likely my problem, as dhcp is successfully completing. seph
