I've used ka9q with packet drivers very successfully to route IP betwen
a token-ring and etheret.

I believe there is also a version of pcroute around that supports
packet drivers.

I believe that cisco will be announcing a 16M token ring board
sometime.  Using a cisco to route (and/or source-route bridge)
a token-ring (currently 4M) works great too.
