[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] Anyone got info on a WD8003EBT?

CALIFFM@BAYLOR.BITNET (Michael Califf) (01/27/89)

I just "retired" an ethernet bridge, and discovered two Western
Digital cards inside of it.  I would like to use them in a couple
of PC's, but I do not have documentation for them, and they are
slightly different (larger, more jumpers) from a WD8003E.  Anyone
have any docs, or know where to contact Western Digital?  I would
like to use them with either Stanford or NCSA Telnet if it is
possible, although I might be able to purchase a commercial package
if I need to.

Thanks in advance,

The WD8003EBT is only different in that it has a boot ROM socket.  We have
several here, and PC/TCP definitely runs on them.   I can't find either
the EBT versions of the manuals or the cards themselves, so they must
be active in machines right now.  As far as I know, the extra jumpers
are only concerned with the Boot ROM base address.
