Form 8-K filed September 20, 2004 File No. 000-23699 Dear Ms. Walsh: This firm represents Visual Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) and is writing in response to your letter of October 4, 2004. The Company filed the above mentioned Form 8-K disclosing that it had engaged new accountants. Item 304(a)(2) of Regulation S-K provides that if the Company had consulted with the new accountants during the two most recent fiscal years or subsequent interim period prior to their engagement, the Company would be required to disclose the details of such consultation. The Company never consulted with the new accountants prior to the engagement, and accordingly, the Company did not disclose the lack of such consultation. Thus, we respectfully submit that there is no revision necessary to the Company’s disclosure since the Form 8-K is accurate and adequate in light of the requirement of Item 304(a)(2). Sincerely, /s/ Nancy A. Spangler Nancy A. Spangler /nas cc: Donald E. Clarke Piper Rudnick LLP
