I believe that this was discussed on the list a while ago, but I was
told that this will not work. I was going to use this method to
connect my 120 to my cable modem, but was told that NIE 1.1 does not
work with a LocalTalk bridge. The data does not get encoded properly
or something. I believe that it works with NIE 2.0, but them you can
use ethernet anyway.
