A method of connecting a new end station to a ring communication system for connecting a number of end stations. The method comprises: i) sensing an attempt by the new end station to attach to the ring; ii) determining whether there is a single end station only existing on the ring; and, iiia) if it is determined that there is more than one end station on the ring, allowing the new end station to attach to the ring and maintaining the ring communication configuration; or b) if it is determined that there is a single end station only on the ring, breaking the ring configuration and setting up two separate communication paths between the new end station and the existing end station.
