Redwood City, California, Aug. 12 (Bloomberg) -- AT&T Corp.,
the largest shareholder in high-speed Internet-access provider
Excite At Home Corp., plans to replace some 3Com Corp. network
equipment with that of rival Cisco Systems Inc. because of recent
outages and other problems related to the equipment, Cnet
News.com reported, citing unidentified sources. The 3Com
equipment, which AT&T began installing in the San Francisco Bay
Area late last year, may be incompatible with other parts of
AT&T's cable system. An agreement to replace the equipment may be
disclosed within a few weeks, and No. 1 Internet-equipment maker
Cisco could become Excite At Home's chief cable-equipment
provider, Cnet said.

AT&T, Excite At Home, 3Com and Cisco weren't immediately
available to comment.
