The last information I had from AT&T was that they would only support
STARLAN. All other streams modules were to be left (as an exersise for the
interested reader :-) to external companies to provide.

Wollongong are currently working on ethernet/tcp/ip streams modules for
S5.3. I would suggest that you contact them to get a more precise delay.
You would probably find it cheaper to buy directly from them, than
go through your local AT&T dealer too.
