Interesting. I use NIE 2.0 only and can dial and use Ethernet. Could be
that you either missed a package (e.g. modmsupt.pkg) or there's some
corruption.

Do what? Print over a network? All the time (to a Phaser 560). Connect via
Ethernet? ditto.

Victor Rehorst's Ethernet page should be able to help you here.

I have both the original Farallon 595 and a newer 3Com 3CXE589ET; the
latter allows you to use whatever 10BaseT patch cable is lying around (the
Farallon uses a custom cable).

Install it, taking care to note what packages are required in what sequence
(e.g. Newton Devices before Ethernet support).
