I have just inherited a half dozen Lantastic ethernet cards (or I assume they are ethernet cards) made by Aritisoft. I don't want to run Lantastic but could use them for tcp/ip if I can find a packet driver for them. Hence, does anyone know if there exists a packet driver for these cards? I have looked in the drivers distribution that generally goes with NCSA telnet and don't see one. It looks like it is similar to the Western Digital cards. If anyone knows, please mail me and I will let the rest of you know what I find out. ------ UUCP: {uunet | ubc-cs}!van-bc!nvanbc!lawrence INET: lharris@laurel.hcs.ca MAIL: 8506 Woodtrail Place, Burnaby, B.C., Canada V5A 4A9

If so then they can be jumpered to be NE-2000 compatible (there is of course a clarkson driver for the NE-2000). If they are AE-2's, then they will say so along the top of the card. There will be a jumper at the bottom along the back edge of the card. It will have an 'A' position and an 'N' position. Set it to the 'N' position and it will act like an NE-2000. I have used it with the Clarkson driver and it does work.
