[comp.protocols.appletalk] Bridges: H/W or S/W???

timl@maxwell.Concordia.CA ( TIM LAPIN ) (10/11/89)

Hi all,

I tried posting this in comp.sys.mac, but got no replies.  Now that I know
of this group, maybe my luck will change.

Simply put, I am looking for some hard data comparing the various software
and hardware Localtalk bridges out there.  I've tried Solana R-Servers, and
Liason.  Both were flaky on the most crucial area, that of bridging to a
remote network and then on to a FastPath up to a VAX.  The speed required is
19.2 kbaud across the modem connection.
Liason was better than Solana in most other respects.

So, if you know of other products AND A COMPARISON of said products I would
appreciate hearing from you.

Please send via e-mail and I will summarize if necessary.
Thanks.
