Well, I've tired of trying to get one of my two
network cards to work in my Newt...(I've got a USR
Megaherts 33.6 w/xjack and 10mbps. XJEM3336 and a 3Com
EtherLink III Lan+33.6, 3C562C/3C563C)They are dual
purpose cards, modem and Lan, and the Newt drivers
specifically say that they won't work, so I guess
they're right! (I guess if they're not doing me any
good, anyone want to buy one? I've got all the
dongles)
So, I've placed an order with EggHead for that D-Link
DE-660CT. $44 w/shipping!
In the email below, it states "works fine with the
> ATLAN drivers on the Newton"
Now, are these drivers already there when I install
the NIE 2.0 packages Or is there a patch/driver I need
to download and use?
Thanks

this is a temporary sig file until I can figure out a more clever one to use
