I'm running NCSA Telnet and using the packet driver written at Clarkson University, which I now see was written originally for the 8 bit card. So apparently my card is running in 8 bit mode. The 7.x wd8003e packet driver also supports the wd8013EBT, running in 16-bit mode. I can't tell from your message what version you're using (for the subtlety-impaired: ALWAYS SAY WHAT VERSION PACKET DRIVER YOU'RE USING). -- --russ (nelson@clutx [.bitnet | .clarkson.edu]) FAX 315-268-7600 It's better to get mugged than to live a life of fear -- Freeman Dyson I joined the League for Programming Freedom, and I hope you'll join too.
