A method of inserting an end station (6-8) into a token ring network (2). The end station (6-8) attempts to open into the ring network in one insertion mode, the end station responding to an insertion error code relating to an insertion event, before the end station applies phantom drive, to change from one insertion mode to another insertion mode. A change of insertion mode is a change in at least one of end station speed and end station idling speed.
