Does the 3c503 packet driver work with 3com's ether link ii TP (Twisted Pair) card? If not is there a packet driver for this? Thanks in advance, Jim

Most likely. The 3c503 uses the National 8390, which doesn't know if you're
using TP or thinwire.

Russ; YES, It does (just remember to set the command line switch for either wire or AUI port). -- John Robert Breeden, netcom!jbreeden@apple.com, apple!netcom!jbreeden, ATTMAIL:!jbreeden ------------------------------------------------------------------- "The nice thing about standards is that you have so many to choose from.
