Is there any packet drivers that support both 802.3 and 8137 packet protocols? Any information is greatly appreciated. Yes, the 7.x packet drivers have a switch that converts from one to the other. Server is a AT compatible 386 with a NE2000 Ethernet card Most workstations use Racal NI5210, NI6510 Ethernet cards Some workstations use Western Digital WD8003E Ethernet cards Some laptop computers (Toshiba) use Toshiba Ethernet cards We have packet drivers for all of the above except the Toshiba, unless the Toshiba Ethernet card is compatible with something else (ne1000?). The Clarkson packet driver collection Availability The Clarkson collection of packet drivers is available by FTP, by archive-server, and by modem. They come in two flavors -- executables only (drivers.arc), and source+executables (driverss.arc). All of the following instructions apply to both drivers.arc and driverss.arc. Mail: I distribute the packet drivers on a 1.2 MB 5.25" disk, or a 720K 3.5" disk. You can send me a check for $20, or you can send me a purchse order and I will bill you for $22. NY residents add 7% sales tax, overseas orders add $3 for shipping. If you send a check, please be sure it is in US dollars -- the bank charges me $15 to convert checks drawn in foreign currencies.
