Hi! We're considering 3Com's 503TP, its 10BaseT implementation of the 503. Does 10BaseT require any modification to the 503 drivers? That is, software that can run on the 3C503, will it still work with the 3C503TP? Also, any recommendations on the most cost effective repeater for extending TP in this configuration? Any assistance on this greatly appreciated! Thanks! Kent Cearley University of Colorado

The only thing to watch for is setting up the card to talk through the AUI or wire 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.

Does anyone know anything about 3COM 3c505 ethernet boards?? The BBS I am in charge of currently recieved an old 3c505 from the CS department. The BBS is on a PC 286 10mHz machince. The only problem is that I don't have any drivers or documents for the card. I would like to set-up the system to allow the users on the modem to access the ethernet and read news or transfer files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
