I need to obtain the packet driver for the G/Ethernet Micro Channel adapter from Gateway Communications, Inc. A few days ago I downloaded the drivers.zip file available at WSMR-SIMTEL20 but I didn't found any driver or reference to this particular adapter. My question is: Is there any driver for this adapter and where can I find it or it is there an equivalent driver to this adapter in the drivers.zip file? Thanks. ========================================================================== | Rafael A.

It is not in the collection because it is not a 'clarkson' driver. Unfortunately, their driver is extrememly old or just based on the old specifications for packet drivers. It does not work with a lot of popular software. Also, the performance is not worth mentioning. I would recommend that anyone considerring a G/Ethernet card look at Western Digital (or some other card) instead. Or if you must pick up some G/Ethernet cards, buy mine!
