Below is a copy of a post I received from Connectix support which might
help you find that which you seek. You might also want to consider
upgrading to VPC 2 as I believe there were some ethernet/networking
issues
with VPC 1. You should also make sure you have selected 802.3 for the
etherenet. HTH James
