Keith,
Phonenet and localtalk don't get on very well together, if you read the
phonenet manual you will note that you can have a 1 localtalk on a Phonenet
network but not the other way round, I am afraid you will have to go out and
buy all phonenet connectors ( which are better by far) or stick with localtalk
connectors.
