[comp.dcom.telecom] HELP: Bridge or Router for Two LANs

tanju@honet7.att.com (Tanju Cataltepe) (10/08/90)

I am asking this question for a friend in a Turkish university. 

They have two LANs (Ethernet) of Sun's and Apollo's. These LANs are
located in buildings a few miles apart. They cannot put in a direct
connection, but they have 4800-9600 bps modems.

They want to be able to use TCP/IP applications such as Telnet and ftp
between the LANs utilizing the modems. I think the boxes they need are
called "bridge" or "router" boxes.

Their question is where can they buy these from? Any experiences, tips
and pointers will be appreciated much.
