Does anyone out there have any experience with any of the direct Macintosh<->Ethernet interfaces? Kinetics ("EtherSC") and Dove ("FastNet SCSI") both seem to sell them. Are there any others? The sort of information I'm looking for is: 1) Do they work? How well? 2) Do they support Appletalk over ethernet? 3) If (2) what sort of encapsulation do they use - i.e. do they support the CAP/KIP IP encapsulation? 4) If not (3) do they have any support for changing the encapsulation? 5) Do they support TCP/IP? At the same time as Appletalk? While I'm asking: does anyone know anything about Ethernet boards for the Mac II - other than the 3COM one that seems to have slipped. The same sorts of questions apply. Thanks for any information, Dan Tappan BB&N
