I posted a version of this request to the appletalk newsgroup 3 weeks ago and received no response, so forgive me if you have seen this before. We currently have a need of spliting our PhoneNet (ModuNet) network into two Zones (with plans for expansion to a third zone through two Kinetics FastPaths via Ethernet). I have seen references to network bridges that perform this function; but, would like to get details (company address, price, experiences, etc...) regarding these bridges. Our current setup consists of two physically seperate zones, each with their own LW+ and one zone connected to Ethernet (UNIX) via a Kinetics FastPath running PacerLink(tm) for VAX access. The Ethernet zone will have a TI OmniLaser 2115 printer connected to the VAX (by the way, does a Chooser selectable printer driver exsist for this beast?). E-mail is prefered and, of course, I'll summarize if requested. Thank You!! P.S. Thank you Ephraim Vishniac for the quick response about the PM2400SA modem and your favorable experiences with using it. After all the recent discussion about this modem, I have made the decision to buy one; but, to be cautious of its operating environment. -- Dean Wormell ...!{harvard,ima}!bbn!aoa!dean
