Thanks for the valuable info, Morgan. Right now, I'm a bit dead in
the water. I just can't connect with NCX through AppleTalk over
Ethernet with my 2100. I just blew off my Farallon Ethernet PCMCIA
card. I've tried to use my Wavelan wireless card with Hiroshi's
driver, which I have registered. I input my WEP key for my snow
AirPort base station, but I can't connect to anything, not even to
the Internet which at least I was able with my Farallon. Are there
any known issues with WEP, 128bits on a Snow AirPort base station?

-Laurent.
