Yes!  The trick is to use the public domain packet drivers rather than the
built-in driver code.  I have been using the 3c503 (and 3c505) packet
drivers with no problems.  You specify "packet" instead of the adapter
type in the config.tel file.  You must run the packet driver before any
other network programs.  Invokign it in autoexec.bat works fine (it installs
itself as a TSR).  Ron.
