Please correct me if I am wrong. AT&T StarGROUP software version 3.3a and 3.4 support NDIS and will work concurrently with the DIS_PKT.DOS file from FTP software (vax.ftp.com). You must have version 3.3.1 of the ATTCSMA.DOS file. Our version of 3.3 didn't have it. If not, contact your AT&T folks and have them get it for you.
