[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] Need info. on 3com compatible boards for PC AT compatible

PVJQC@CUNYVM (08/21/90)

Hi ..
We have a network of 20 IBM PS/2s with 3com 3c523 boards and with
3com 3+ network os running under dos 3.3. I want to add couple of AT
compatibles as stations on the net. I am looking for PC AT network adapters
which would work fine with 3com 3+ network. The media is RG58 thin ethernet.
3com boards are very expensive and I am wondering if any cheaper alternative
is available. I have EN-1000 novell compatible board which I could not get it
to work with 3com. I guess I do not have the correct driver for it.
Any suggestions or comments ?
Thanks a lot.

We at university of cologne in germany are very satisfied with 
ethernet cards from Western Digital (WD8003xx). They have drivers
for 3+Share and 3+Open (NDIS).
